Eso es difícil!
This is tough!
Depende en si son objetos directos o indirectos.
It depends on whether they are used as indirect or direct pronouns/ objects
for example:
They will give it to you and me.
They will give it to me.
we would never say:
They will give it to I.
So....it follows that:
They will give it to you and me. (not I)
BUT
we would never say
Me will go for a walk...
only
I will go for a walk.
therefore....
You and I will go for a walk.
The problem is that we Americans will still use them incorrectly ourselves.
although we would never say:
Me will go for a walk.
or
Give it to I.
you still might HEAR...
You and me will go for a walk.
or
They will give it to you and I.
because it does not sound as bad when you use
you and I or me together
Hope that helps.
