§Grammar and usage
Me is the object form of I, used after verbs and prepositions ('He helped me'; 'between you and me'; 'for Radhika and me', not 'for Radhika and I'); in informal English, 'It's me' is normal, while 'It is I' is very formal; 'than me' is informal ('taller than me') and 'than I am' is formal.
यह बहुत पूछा जाता है: me, I का object रूप है, verbs और prepositions के बाद प्रयुक्त ('He helped me'; 'between you and me'; 'for Radhika and me', 'for Radhika and I' नहीं); अनौपचारिक English में 'It's me' सामान्य है, जबकि 'It is I' बहुत औपचारिक है; 'than me' अनौपचारिक ('taller than me') और 'than I am' औपचारिक है।
Tip: remove the other person to check ('He invited Radhika and me' becomes 'He invited me').
युक्ति: जाँचने के लिए दूसरे व्यक्ति को हटाएँ ('He invited Radhika and me' बनता है 'He invited me')।
