Yes it is.

The word "me" is the object of the preposition "to." Objects must be in the objective case. The objective case of the pronoun "I" is "me."

An easy way to remember this is, you would not say She gave the book to I. You would say She gave the book to me. So you must also say She gave the book to Lisa and me.

Many people have trouble with this because they remember their first grade teachers telling them that they shouldn't say Lisa and me went to the park. Their teachers tell them to say Lisa and I went to the park. From this they conclude that "Lisa and me" is never correct. That is the wrong conclusion.

Lisa and I went to the park is correct because "I" is part of the subject of the sentence, so you must use "I" instead of "me." Again, you would say I went to the park (NOT Me went to the park) so use must use Lisa and I went to the park.

Yes, it is correct. "You" is a defective word, which means that it does not have all the usual forms. Not only is it both singular and plural, it is both subject and object case.

When do I use he's and his?

Sometime you use "him and I."but in some cases you need "him and I" together as in "I will pay him money," as you can't use "i will pay he money" It's either "he and I" or "him and me" or in some cases "He and me" like "he gave the book to me." In a place where you would say just "he" use "he and I." For example, you would say "He went to the store" and not "Him went to the store." So you would use "He and I went to the store." as the sentence needs the pair of he and I. In a place where you would just say "him" use "him and me." For example, you would say "Mary gave a present to him" and not "Mary gave a present to he." So you would say "Mary gave a present to him and me." as in the above case.


Is 'The title is called what' correct?

If you're asking someone about the title of a book, movie, and so on, you might say:'What is the title?''Is the title "..."?''Is the book called "..."?''What is the book called?''What is the title of the book?'You wouldn't correctly say, 'The title is what?' unless you were using the phrase in an informal, humorous way.For example, someone says they've just bought a new book and tells you the title, which seems to you a really weird title. You might say, 'The title is what?' as an exclamation.Even in that situation, you still wouldn't say, 'The title is called what?', instead you might say, 'The book is called what?'.
