These are used in the same way as nouns,--either as subject or object.
Nouns have the same form whether used as subject or object. Pronouns,
however, have different forms when used as the object. Here is where we
often make mistakes in the use of pronouns. When the pronouns are
connected by co-ordinate conjunctions they are of the same rank and are
used in the same construction;--if they are used as subjects both must
be used in the subject form;--if they are used as objects, both must be
used in the object form. For example, it is incorrect to say, _He told
the story to her and I_. Here _her_ is properly used in the object form,
for it is the object of the preposition _to_; the pronoun _I_ connected
with _her_ by the use of the conjunction _and_ is also the object of the
preposition _to_, and the object form should be used. You would not say,
_He told the story to I_. The sentence should read, _He told the story
to her and me_.
Co-ordinate conjunctions may connect two pronouns used as the _subject_
of a sentence, as for example:
_She_ and _I_ arrived today.
Co-ordinate conjunctions may connect two pronouns used as the _object_
of the verb, as for example:
Did you call _her_ or _me_?
Co-ordinate conjunctions may connect two pronouns used as the object of
the _preposition_, as:
He gave that to _you_ and _me_.
