The error that bugs me the most right now is the mis-use and mis-placement of objective and subjective forms of pronouns: for example, “Me and her are....”

One of my big grammatical pet peeves is “Dad bought dinner for my wife and I.”

These same people would NEVER say “Dad bought dinner for I,” and most of them still don’t get it when I point this out.

“Me and her are....”

Just between "you and I".
