Me and my language: I just don't understand it!

Another Scot here, who would always say, DH and I. It's how we were taught grammar at school.

When I was teaching, anyone who wrote or said: Me and Jimmy, was told the correct way to say or write it.
I would even say that in casual conversation and I'm certainly not posh.

So do I mcem

Educated in England, where I was also taught to say ‘X and I.’ I’ve heard Prince Harry say ‘Myself and Meghan,’ which is really jarring to my ears.

I agree that ‘My husband and I,’ does sound overly regal but most husbands have a name, I imagine, so I’d use that instead.

You are correct grammatically newgran2019 and I certainly would use the correct form in writing.

I wouldn't say "my husband and I" as it sounds old-fashioned but I'd use "First name and I".

most husbands have a name !!!

Love it!!

I would say 'My OH and I...' no problem. Probably not 'Me and my OH' though.

The Queen is definitely responsible for everyone's reluctance to use 'My husband and I' ? but I can't see any reason for not getting it right otherwise, i.e. John and I, Mary and I etc. as that doesn't sound queenly.

When my daughters used to say "me and X are going to ... ."
I used automatically to correct them saying, " X and I etc", they would reply "No Mum, you aren't going, I am!" I soon got the point and stopped being so pernickety!
They had no problems at school,they knew very well that what you say at home is different from what you write in an English essay!
