The Official Unofficial Weekly Quiz
Every week ( or so ) I will create a Weekly Quiz. Each Quiz will begin on Sunday or Monday and end on Friday or Saturday. There may be no right or wrong answer to the quiz.
I will give twenty ( 20 ) minerals to the person( s ) who says the right answer OR an answer that A.) makes sense B.) Can be backed up. There may be more than one ( 1 ) right answer. The winner( s ) will get the minerals through a PM and will be announced the winner( s ) in the next Weekly Quiz.
This is currently ( the date created ) in the Lite Discussion Forum, it may be moved to Null.
Weekly Quiz #1
The output of prizes will flucuate. If you wish to make a donation to have the prize output go up, send me up to five ( 5 ) minerals per PM. No more than five ( 5 ) PM's per week.
If you think that this forum belongs to the Null Section, please report it AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

QUOTE
In a dictionary, the verb 'BE' is described as:
BE [verb]
first and third person singular past indicative: was
second person singular and plural and first and third person plural past indicative: were
past subjunctive: were
past participle: been
present participle: being
first person singular present indicative: am
second person singular and plural and first and third person plural present indicative: are
third person singular present indicative: is
present subjunctive: be
Therefore you can correctly say 'I am', 'she is', 'you are', etc. Is it ever grammatically correct to say 'I is'?

No, because
I is first person refering to one's self.
Me is third person refering to one's self.
Therefore, "me is" does work.

Lol, I missed the 'i' in OfficIal. I will fix that, thank you. Now the answer, while hard to figure out, is there. If you don't think about it while in your daily life, you'll come across it.

If a person was called 'I' then it would be grammatically correct to say 'I is.'
