Instructions:

You are given a block of text which explains the theory of this concept.

Once you have read the theory, do the exercises given below to test how well you have understood the ideas.

How to do the Exercises:

You are given a set of words.

You are also given some sentences with input boxes, and you are required to use the words to complete the sentences correctly.

You can put your chosen word into the input box by first clicking on the word and then in the input box.

The word will appear in the input box.

If it is correct, it will go green, and if not, it will go red.

Theory:

I is used as the subject of a sentence.
- I gave my car to Maria.

ME is used as the object of a sentence.
- Maria gave ME a car.

Things get confusing when there are multiple subjects and objects.
- David and I want to play football. (I because both DAVID and I are subjects.)
- Maria invited Joe and ME to the party. ( ME because both Joe and ME are objects.)

IF both the subject and the object of a sentence are the same person, MYSELF is used.
I time MYSELF when I run.(I and MYSELF are the same person.)

My and MINE are used to show possession, where MY goes before the item and MINE goes after it.
- This is MY dog.
- This dog is MINE.

MYSELF is also used for emphasis.
- I cooked this MYSELF.

BY MYSELF means ALONE.
- I went on holiday BY MYSELF. (meaning ON MY OWN)
