Complete sentence: Last Sunday, my grandfather and I planted twenty neem saplings along the canal near our village. Drop “my grandfather and” and the test is clear: “I planted”.
| Option | Form and use | Example |
|---|---|---|
| (1) me | the object form, used for the person who receives the action, not for the doer | Grandpa called me to the farm. |
| (2) myself | needs “I” as the subject of the same sentence; it cannot be the subject itself | I made myself a sandwich. |
| (3) mine | means belonging to me | The blue cycle is mine. |
| (4) I (answer) | when two people do the action together, a pronoun in the subject takes the subject form (I, he, she, we, they) | Riya and I sing in the school choir. |
