🍎Using the objective case after the conjunction "than".

✖️Don't say: My sister is taller than me.

✔️Say: My sister is taller than I (am).

🍏 The word "than" is a conjunction, and can only be followed by a pronoun in the nominative case. The verb coming after the pronoun is generally omitted.

Note: Use the objective case in spoken English: You're much taller than me.

➖Miscellaneous examples➖

Using an object pronoun in a double genitive.

✖️Don't say: A friend of him told us the news.

✔️Say: A friend of his told us the news.

🌸🌸

We use the double genitive (of + name + 's, his, mine etc.) when we want to emphasis the person who possesses rather than the thing which he possesses. "A friend of his" is simply another way of saying "one of his friends".
