Short answer "ME. I AM"
Hello,
how can I please answer the following question correctly?
"Who is twenty years old - you or John?"
Can I say? "Me and John. We are both twenty years old."
or should I say "John and I."
A similar situation:
"Who is Sara's Brother?" Can I answer "Me. I'm her brother." or "I am. I'm her brother."
Thank you for your help!
