As the title. I am confused about it. Can somebody who lives in western countries tell me how you often use? I have asked a friend who comes from Australia told me that the second one is better.But I looked up in the English grammer book, it used the first one. Which one is better or correct?Thank you a lot.

Reverse it and you'll have your answer. If SHE were I or If HER were I. Obviously SHE sounds better. You should always end the sentance in the "self" though, so actually: If she were I, would be the correct way. i.e. Anna and I went to the store, not Me and Anna went to the store...

I used to "break" my dogs from being under a command using the word "ok"...30 years later I use the word "free" and I use it for a reason. Here is my logic on this and I hope it answers your question. If the dog is under the "platz" command and I am done, I will tell him "free". That does not mean, in my mind, that he HAS to get up, he can if he wants to, but, it is NOT a command...he is simply being released. If my dog came to the heal position on his one while I am just standing there and then after looking at me, walked away, that is ok, he will not be corrected because in my mind, even though he offered, he was not under obligation. If I came in the room and he looked at me and went to the down position, I would look around to see what he was into, then, go about my business. I do not correct a dog that was not under command by me to do anything specific. Not sure if that is what you want to hear, but, if you want to philosophize, you know what to do....hope I helped!

I went to Catholic School and verb conjugation was a must. However, I agree with Timothy. People use it incorrectly because they 've heard it used incorrectly by politicians, celebrities, and the like. I had to check on it myself to affirm what I already knew because of hearing it said so often wrongly.

If I was her or If I were her are the correct ways you could say it depending on past/present tense.

If I were she is correct. It sounds wrong because most people are illiterate and say "her."
