Answer Use I when it is the subject (nominative) and me when it is the object (accusative). eg I write the book (I is the subject, book the object) eg The dog bit me (the dog is the subject and me is the object) Answer I like this question as it illustrates the need for me to share with the questioner my understanding of when it is appropriate to use I and when I should use me in a sentence. First of all, and I can't stress this enough, I should always be capitalized when used in a sentence but not always me. Me should, of course, be capitalized when me is the first word of the sentence and can be capitalized to make a point, or stress the importance placed on me. I understand that in this wacky world of wikiwaves and Surfing with text there is an entire culture that prefers to leave I uncapitalized, but it reveals an undeniable self effacement which only undermines the choice of word. What I'm saying is, by refusing to capitalize the letter I when you are using it as a pronoun suggests you place no real importance on the pronoun you've chosen and only contradicts the point of using I as a pronoun. I means you if it is you that is using I in a sentence. You are referring to yourself, show yourself some respect and if you don't want to do that then use a different pronoun. Instead of I use we as in; we are pleased to meet you and we are me. If you are going to use I as the pronoun I think you should capitalize it, but that's just me.

How would you use 'when' in a sentence?

So- you are asking when to use 'when' in a sentence. When you are asking how to use when in a question, you are already using when in a sentence, because a question actually is a sentence. I like to use when in a sentence whenever I like.
