Are is the plural form of the verb to be. Am is the first person form of the verb to be. Are is used for plural subjects, whereas am is used for singular subjects. Jim, John, and I is a plural subject (3 people), so the correct form is “Jim, John, and I are going somewhere.”

Which version do you choose? You use yourself as the object to refer to the second person (you) when the subject already contains the second person (you). Examples: You see yourself as an artist.

You use ourselves to emphasize a first person plural subject. In more formal English, ourselves is sometimes used instead of ‘us’ as the object of a verb or preposition, for emphasis. Others are feeling just the way we ourselves would feel in the same situation.

The forms he, she and they are used when a pronoun is the subject of a sentence. The forms him, her and them are used when a pronoun is the object of a sentence. The forms his, her, hers, their and theirs are possessive in nature.

The short answer is that “it is her” is the correct one since that is what native speakers will use almost all the time. The complication is that in some technical sense, “it is she” is the one that is correct.

The correct sentence is “He and his family are coming home.” To choose the correct verb, you first need to identify the subject of the verb. Answer: He and his family. “He and his family” is a compound subject, meaning that it has more than one part.

It depends on whether the phrase is used as an object or a subject. Basically, if the two of them are doing something, it’s “he and his wife.” If something is being done to them, it’s “him and his wife.” If you can replace the phrase with “they,” use “he and his wife.”

My friend and I or my friend and me? The answer is it depends. “My friend and I” would be the subject of the sentence whereas we say “my friend and me” when it is the object.
