Me am smiling? I think not. I am smiling. Therefore, my friend and I are smiling.

Where did you find that "are"?

Nah it's not

Edit: well that was a fun experiment. The Reddit-esque nature of just approving contrary, trite statements is rife here on Lemmy too.

The person I replied to was correct. If English is your second language it's forgivable. For the rest of you, speak to your local member about the state of education where you live. Jfc.

In English it is as well. I am smiling, not me am smiling. Therefore, my friend and I are smiling.

But me and my dude is, sadly, correct too. Or my friend and I.

Seriously? Wtf? Do you have a link where I could learn more about this?

[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yes it is lol.

It's just that "me and X" is very popular.

I learned to accept it. I will never accept switching your for you're, though.

Your just angry that you're English isn't as good as there's.
