相信大家都知道,人称代词 “我” 的主格为 “I”,宾格为 “me”。但在表示 “某人和我” 时,以 “你和我” 为例,应该说 “you and I” 还是 “you and me”?有没有简单易记的小窍门来帮助我们判断?看视频中主持人 Phil 辨析 “我” 的两大所有格的区别。
文字稿
Let's look at how to avoid confusion between me and I.
Now, the main difference is simple.
Use I when you are the subject of a clause.
And use me when you are the object.
Now, that's easy enough – but here is where it starts to get more complicated.
If you've got two people, say Sam and me, or should that be Sam and I?
Well, this question is most important in formal language – writing rather than speaking.
If you're using formal language, you need to think whether you are the subject or the object.
Sam and I are making a video.
Tom and I are getting coffee.
If you've got a problem, talk to Sam or me.
You're going to be working with me and Tom.
An easy way to check is to take out the other person (Sorry, Sam).
Now it should be easy to see that I should say I'm making a video. Or:
If you have a problem, talk to me.
So, just remember that you and I are subjects, while the objects are me and you.
用法总结
“我” 在句中做主语时,使用主格 “I”,当 “某人与我” 一起时,则为 “someone and I”。
Sam and I are making a video.
Tom and I are getting coffee.
You and I would need to talk.
My mum and I have a lot in common.
“我” 在句中做宾语时,使用宾格 “me”,当 “某人与我” 一起时,则为 “someone and me”。
If you've got a problem, talk to Sam or me.
You're going to be working with me and Tom.
Let's forget about what happened between you and me.
You have to be honest with me and our manager.
在正式场合,如英语写作中对 “我” 的主格 “I” 和宾格 “me” 的区分使用要求比日常口语中严格。
