There's a right time for each of those.

Traditionally we were taught to put the other person first, so "I" or "me" comes second. But that is a matter of courtesy, not grammar. Grammatically, "me and you" is just as good as "you and me." (And "I and you" is just as good as "you and I," although it would certainly be frowned upon by educated persons.)

But as for when to use "me" and when to use "I"--they have different meanings. Use "I" when you are on the doing end of something--when you are the subject of the verb. Use "me" when you are on the receiving end, the "done-to" side of a verb or a preposition.

The correct is "between you and me".

An easy way to remember it is that you say "between us" and not "between we".

There is a link below to a grammatical explanation of why it is so.

Between he and his wife or between him and his wife?

"Between him and his wife" is correct. You wouldn't say "It's between they". You would say "It's between them". So the objective pronoun (him) is correct and not the subjective pronoun (he).

Which is correct between Cathy and I or between Cathy and me?

Between "Cathy and me" is correct. "Between" is a preposition, and you use "me" as the object of a preposition. Always try it with another proposition, such as "for," and make it singular. Would you say "for I"? No, you would say "for me." This applies to more than one person, so the proper usage is "for you and me," the same as "for me." This applies to "between" as well.

What is a difference between correct and right?

Though "correct" and "right" mean the exact same thing, I'd say "correct" is more of what a host on a game show might say, whereas "right" is agreeing with someone or acknowledging their choice.


Why do the Rastafarians say 'I and I' in lieu of 'We'?

We are all one. There is no "you" and "me." Rather than say "you and I" it is more correct to say "I and I." "I and I" sometimes just means "I" instead of "we." There is no difference between "I and I"

Is it grammatically correct to say difference between him and them?

Yes, the prepositional phrase 'between him and them' is correct because the pronouns 'him' and 'them' are objective formsfunctioning as the object of the preposition 'between'.Pronouns following prepositions are always in the objective case, the object of the preposition.
