Which sentence correctly uses the object pronoun after the preposition ‘between’?
ABetween you and I, this is a secret.
BBetween yourself and me, this is a secret.
CBetween you and me, this is a secret.
DBetween I and you, this is a secret.
Explanation
The word ‘between’ is a preposition, and prepositions in English must be followed by an object pronoun rather than a subject pronoun. Since ‘me’ is the object form of the pronoun (compared with the subject form ‘I’), the phrase ‘between you and me’ is grammatically correct. This is one of the most common pronoun-case errors tested in formal English exams. Explore more English MCQs on mcqstutor to keep practicing.
