The use of "I" and "me"

The use of I and me. 

Both words are pronouns, but I is a subject pronoun while me is an object pronoun. So, in the sentence, “She and I went to the store,” the correct word to use would be I rather than me. “He put suntan lotion on him and me” would be correct because him and me are objects.

Use of your / you're

Your and you’re is a simple one, once you’ve got the hang of it.  These two words are homophones, meaning they sound the same, but are spelled differently and have different meanings. Luckily for us, this one is nice and easy.

 

Definitions and Examples of Your and You’re

Your is possessive, meaning that something belongs to you or the person you are speaking to. For example, “What is your name?” Or, “Are these your car keys?”

You’re is a combination of the words, you and are. This is called a contraction. So, whenever you see the word you’re, you can read it as you are and it will still make sense.

The most simple way to tell these two apart is to use them in a sentence. For example: Your dog is lovely. This makes perfect sense, but you’re (you are) dog is lovely, does not work. You’re is the words you are put together. You can use this to your advantage when testing if you’re using the right one.

  • You’re really smart.
  • The best way to prepare for tomorrow is to make sure you do your best today.
  • Live your dreams.
  • Can you post the parcel when you’re in London?

TOP TIP FOR UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN YOUR AND YOU’RE

The easiest way to remember which word to use is to remember that you’re is a contraction of the words you are.

You’re = you are.  Keep this in your mind if you get a little stuck.

Whereas, your = belonging to a person.
