English Grammar: I, Me, Myself, and My Why are the smallest words in English so difficult to master? Even native speakers get very confused with the English pronouns I, me, myself, and my! Why do we have so many different words to describe the same person? Each word is a different part of speech and has a different role to play in a sentence. I is a subject pronoun. Use it before the verb. A subject does the action of a verb in a sentence. I run.I spoke to my friend yesterday.I went to the movies last night. When you have a double subject that includes I, always use and I. My mom and I love movies.NOT: I and my mom love Christmas movies. My mom and I or my mom and me? My mom and I love Christmas movies.My mom and me love movies. Me love movies is not a correct English sentence. Me is an object pronoun. An object receives the action of the verb in a sentence. He asked me a question.She gave me her camera.My dad told me to call. Important note: Not all verbs are followed by an object. He suggest me ...She say me …Can you explain me … ?
