Hi Pikachuuu, "My friend and I" is grammatically correct when it is placed before the verb and is the subject of the sentence. Take this sentence for example: My aunt invited my friend and me to dinner. The first person singular pronoun "I" is used when it is the subject of a verb. The first person singular pronoun "me" is used when it is the object of a verb or preposition .In the example above, "my friend and me" is the object of the verb "invited" and "my aunt "is the subject. When using compound subject or object, sometimes is difficult to know which personal pronoun to use. Example of sentences with "me" in the object position: -The teacher wants my friend and me to give the new student a tour. -Sam asked Jeff and me a question. Example of sentences with" I" in the subject position: -My wife and I gave the cake to Mary -Jeff and I asked Sam a question. Hope this helps you.
"My friend and I..." It is formally polite to relay a story with "I" following the name of the friend you are telling the story about.
Of course I and my friends did something

Hi there! For this question, normally even native speakers will get confuse with which is the proper sentence to use. However, you have to be mindful of the grammar whether you intend to use prescriptive or descriptive grammar. So, the proper sentence would be "my friend and I". I hope this helps!
grammatically correct answer would be I and my friend. In non-standard and colloquial language Me and my friend is common however
My friend and I is British English. Me and my friend is American English.
The correct way would be to say, 'me and my friend'
Hello Pikachuu, 'I' has the function of subject in a sentence. It is the agent of the action, therefore it is normally followed by a verb. Ex: My friend and I will go to the cinema. 'Me' has the function of object. That means it receive the action of the verb. Ex: He told my friend and me to go to the cinema. I hope it helps. Greetings
My friend and I
