However I'd been confused with using of these personal pronouns till I found another one.  For those like me, I've decided to post it: Is it "Kathryn and  I  go shopping." or "Kathryn and  me  go shopping." ? The  subject pronouns  must be part of the subject of the sentence; this means that the pronoun performs the action, for example: "Kathryn and  I  go shopping." Kathryn and the speaker  are performing the action of shopping, so they are the subject of the sentence. The  object pronouns  always receive action. "The store fired Kathryn and me."  Me  is the pronoun in this sentence and is correct, as opposed to "The store fired Kathryn and  I  " because Kathryn and the speaker (me) have...</description></item><item><title>Re: SHE or HER; HE or HIM; I or ME ?</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/SheOrHerHeOrHimIOrMe/vlcmv/post.htm#388917</link><pubDate>Sun, 22 Mar 2009 17:35:01 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:388917</guid><dc:creator>Cool Breeze</dc:creator><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/SheOrHerHeOrHimIOrMe/vlcmv/post.htm#388917</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-388917.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>Hi EL You need to have the subject form (she, I) in your sentences as you have a finite/main verb (said, didn't ). The controversy mainly concerns sentences like: It's I/me. Both are correct but no one says It's I.

 That's what Jane/she said.            These are her/Jane's words.   
 That's what Tom/he said.            These are his/Tom's words.</description></item><item><title>SHE or HER; HE or HIM; I or ME ?</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/SheOrHerHeOrHimIOrMe/vlcmv/post.htm</link><pubDate>Sun, 22 Feb 2009 17:35:01 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:388913</guid><dc:creator>English_Learner</dc:creator><slash:comments>3</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/SheOrHerHeOrHimIOrMe/vlcmv/post.htm</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments29-388913.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>Hi everyone. 
 Can someone give me several clear examples or just to explain when it's better to use she, he, I 
 and when her, him, me? 
 Which one of these 2 is the correct one? 
 Or if the both of them are correct, what is the difference betwen them and in what situation it's better to use the 1st example (using she,he, I) and when the 2nd one (her, him, me)? 
      1st                          2nd 
 ------------------------------------------------------------- 
 That's what  she  said.     or    That's what  her  said. 
 That's what he said.     or    That's what him said. 
      I didn't.          or        Me didn't. 

 Thank you</description></item></channel></rss>
