Here’s a mistake I notice Thai and Chinese speakers make a lot

- mixing up subject and object pronouns.

We use he and she when it’s the subject of a sentence. We use him and her when it’s the object of a sentence. For example:

Subject pronouns:
He runs every morning.
She likes to swim.

Object pronouns:
Give the book to him.
I will tell her.

Here’s a table of all the pronouns. Try it in the comments if you want to practice!

    @BE I’m happy to have helped 😁

    @Joe Butler Okay, thanks you really helped me.

    @BE I’m not sure why, but we always put I last! 🧐
  • BE

    @Joe Butler Hahaha Why I can't put me first? For example! I and Joe

    @BE “My friends and I”. For example “My friends and I went to the movies”. Some people, like my mom, will judge people if they get it wrong haha.
  • BE

    @Joe Butler Oh!! Thanks for you Explanation. So I and my friends right?

    @BE That’s technically a mistake if they use it that way. If I used it that way as a kid, my mom and teachers would correct me. But not everyone worries about that example as much. In the case you mentioned you can get away with either way.
