Is it correct to say “come visit me and my friend” or “come visit my friend and I”?
The correct phrase is “come visit my friend and me.”
Here’s a brief explanation:
“Come visit me and my friend” is incorrect because it puts the speaker first, which is considered impolite in English.
“Come visit my friend and I” is also incorrect because “I” is used as a subject pronoun, but in this case, we need an object pronoun.
“Come visit my friend and me” is correct because it uses the object pronoun “me” and puts the other person first, which is considered polite.
A good way to check is to remove the other person from the sentence. You wouldn’t say “come visit I,” you’d say “come visit me.” The same rule applies when you add another person to the sentence.
Would you like me to elaborate on this grammar rule or provide more examples?
does the following sentence sound OK? can you think of a better way to write this? or does it sound OK as it is?
“If you’re interested in getting a glimpse of how I use Artificial Intelligence every day to get answers to questions and help with all sorts of personal and work activities, come visit Claude and me… “
The sentence is grammatically correct and conveys your message clearly. However, I can suggest a few minor tweaks to make it more engaging and concise:
“Curious about how I use Artificial Intelligence daily for personal and work tasks? Come visit Claude and me to see AI in action!”
This version:
- Starts with a question to engage the reader
- Is more concise while retaining the key information
- Uses “daily” instead of “every day” for smoother flow
- Replaces “getting a glimpse” with “see AI in action” for a more dynamic feel
Your original version is perfectly fine if you prefer it. The suggested revision is just an option that might sound a bit more conversational and direct. The choice between them depends on your personal style and the context in which you’re using this invitation.
that’s much better! thanks 🙂
