But they are not speaking grammatically.   If you are learning English, try and learn the correct way to speak.   My boyfriend is going to the concert. I am going to the concert. Therefore, my boyfriend and I are going to the concert.</description></item><item><title>Re: I are, me are!</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/IAreMeAre/zwq/post.htm#1752</link><pubDate>Fri, 22 May 2009 03:05:34 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:1752</guid><dc:creator>Jacko</dc:creator><slash:comments>5</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/IAreMeAre/zwq/post.htm#1752</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-1752.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>My  and I are going to the concert.</description></item><item><title>Re: I are, me are!</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/IAreMeAre/zwq/post.htm#1651</link><pubDate>Thu, 22 Jan 2009 04:05:34 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:1651</guid><dc:creator>dc2c0pg</dc:creator><slash:comments>6</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/IAreMeAre/zwq/post.htm#1651</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-1651.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>Thanks for explaining subject and object pronouns.

You could easily tell him that if he removed "My boyfriend and," then you would have, "I  going to the concert." You definitely don't say "Me  going to the concert."</description></item><item><title>I are, me are!</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/IAreMeAre/zwq/post.htm</link><pubDate>Sun, 22 Feb 2009 04:05:34 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:1597</guid><dc:creator>Guest</dc:creator><slash:comments>9</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/IAreMeAre/zwq/post.htm</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-1597.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>1. My boyfriend and I are going to the concert.  2. My boyfriend and me are going to the concert.   I KNOW #1 is correct. My friend says #2 is correct.   How do I explain to him that he is wrong? I know the error is incorrect pronoun usage.</description></item></channel></rss>
