Proper use of verbaige...?

Should the sentence be:

You and I are going to town.

or

You and me are going to town.

Are there any instances where "you and me" are acceptable to use in sentance structure?

Thanks,

-Rick

It's: You are I are going to town. (correct) In informal English, in most dialects, especially in spoken English, you can also say: Me and you are going to town. You and me are going to town doesn't seem to be common compared to the other versions, so I wouldn't suggest it.

Hi,

As objects, 'you and me' are fine. eg

Mary loves you.

Mary loves me.

Mary loves you and me. (Mary needs to make up her mind!)

Best wishes, Clive
