What is the proper grammar he and she or him her?

The proper grammar depends on the context of the sentence:

"He and she" is used as the subject of a verb.

Examples:

* He and she went to the store together.

* He and she are best friends.

"Him and her" is used as the object of a verb or preposition.

Examples:

* I saw him and her at the park.

* The teacher gave him and her a homework assignment.

Here's a simple way to remember:

* If you can replace "he and she" with "they," it's correct.

* If you can replace "him and her" with "them," it's correct.
