Presentation transcript:

 The objective pronoun form is used as object of a preposition.  The problem of which pronoun form to use as the object of a preposition arises only when the object is compound.  Say it alone to figure out which works best.

 Will your aunt be going with you and (I, me)?  The correct answer is ‘me’.  Say it by itself and it will sounds correct.  Will your aunt be going with me?

 The preposition ‘between’ causes especially noticeable errors in pronoun usage.  Use only the objective pronoun forms after ‘between’  Wrong – between you and he  Right – between you and him  Wrong – between she and I  Right – between her and me

 In a construction such as ‘we girls’ or ‘us boys’, the use of the noun determines the case form of the pronoun.  We girls can bring the lunch.  The club gave the equipment to us girls.

 We received Christmas cards from (they, them).  (We, Us) students love going out on Saturday night.  The doctor gave virus shots to both the coaches and (we, us).  The work was not too difficult for (we, us) girls.  Between you and (he, him), I think you are the best for the job.
