Word usage???

Hi,

I know we use " Tom and I ", but can we use "Me and Tom" as well? some people say it is wrong or that it is not american english.

Also can someone tell me the basic difference in writing styles of British, American and Australian English?

Yes, you can use "me and Tom" when you would use "me" if it were just you. If you remove "and Tom" then use whichever pronoun you would nromally use ( I for the subject and me for the object ). Please make sure you copy both me and Tom on your responses.
