When do you use pronouns in the objective case?

You use pronouns in the objective case when they are the object of a verb or preposition. Here's a breakdown:

Direct Objects:

* The verb acts directly on the object.

* Example: "The teacher gave me a high grade." (Me is the direct object of the verb "gave")

Indirect Objects:

* The object receives the direct object.

* Example: "The teacher gave me a high grade." (Me is the indirect object, receiving the direct object "a high grade")

Objects of Prepositions:

* The pronoun follows a preposition.

* Example: "The teacher gave a high grade to me." (Me is the object of the preposition "to")

Here's a handy table of objective case pronouns:

| Singular | Plural |

|---|---|

| me | us |

| you | you |

| him | them |

| her | them |

| it | them |

Examples:

* Direct Object: "The dog chased him."

* Indirect Object: "She gave him a book."

* Object of Preposition: "The cat jumped on me."

Important Note: Don't confuse the objective case with the nominative (subjective) case, which is used for the subject of a sentence.

Incorrect: "Me went to the store." (Me is the subject, so it should be "I")

Correct: "I went to the store."
