We used to sing this little song:

"Let's get back to the garden..you and I"
--Aaron David +1973


Shouldn't it be "you and me"? Why do you say "Let us"? Who is actually the subject anyway?

My guess is that "you and me" reflect to "us" and that the actual subject is an understood "you" or at least "somebody". I wouldn't say "Let I have some." or "Let I go to the ball game."

Can you please help make this clear? Thanks!

Somehow he had transported them to, of all places, his Boss's ship, and not just to his ship, but to the Boss himself.

It looks and feels awkward. I have a few similar to this. Is there a better way to fix it?

I remember being taught that a noun beginning with a vowel and the letter 'h' should be preceded with 'an' rather than 'a'
e.g. 'an house', 'an apple' 'an auction'
sometimes it just doesn't sound right.
Anyone know the rule

I have an idea, but I've heard varying answers. I mean it in the abstract sense (not to literally split an atom, but to figuratively do so). Is it even a common phrase? I do not know the exact context where the phrase would fit.

I feel quite depressed tonight. I keep falling for men who do not notice me or use me. I mean, this guy from last night: We did not even exchange numbers, because at the time I saw it as a fling...but now I feel lonely: Perhaps because I again had a glimpse of what life could have been like. I want to forget about each and every loser who crossed my path...I want somebody who appreciates me...but where do I find him? Please give advice or cheer me up...Oh, no perverts please!
