Sánchez agradeció públicamente el miércoles a la Casa Real que “marcara distancias” con esas informaciones “inquietantes y perturbadoras”, en alusión a la donación por parte de Juan CarlosI de 65 millones de dólares, supuestamente recibidos del rey de Arabia Saudí, a su examiga Corinna Larsen.
[…]It ill beſeemes a knight of gentle ſort, / Such as ye haue him boaſted, to beguyle / A ſimple maide, and worke ſo hainous tort, / In ſhame of knighthood, asI largely can report.
Sweet Baſſanio, My ſhips haue all miſcarried, my Creditors grow cruell, my eſtate is very low: my bond to the Iew is forfet, and ſince in paying it, it is impoſſible I ſhould liue, all debts are cleeredbetweene you andI if I might but ſee you at my death.
The wordI is always capitalised in written English. Other forms of the pronoun, such asme andmy, follow regular English capitalisation rules.
I is the subject (nominative) form, as opposed tome, which is the objective (accusative and dative) form.Me is also used emphatically, like Frenchmoi. In some cases there are differing views about which is preferred. For example, the traditional rule followed by some speakers is to useI as the complement of the copula (It is I), but it is now more usual to chooseme in this context (It's me).
When used in lists, it is often thought better to refer to oneself last. Thus it is more natural to sayJohn and I thanI and John. In such lists, the traditional rule is to use the same case form one would choose if there were only one pronoun. Thus, since we sayI am happy, we sayJohn and I are happy, but since we sayJenny saw me, so we sayJenny saw John and me. However, one frequently hearsJohn and me are happy, which is traditionally seen as a case error. Similarly, probably as ahypercorrected reaction to this, one can occasionally hear phrases likeJenny saw John and I.
a.1733,Thomas Boston, edited by [Thomas Boston the younger],Sermons and Discourses on Several Important Subjects in Divinity.[…], volume I, Edinburgh:[…] William Gray,[…], published1753, page333:
They are calledmen, becauſe each of them poſſeſſeth the whole man, though not wholly. There are by their means twoI’s in every believer,Rom. vii. 15.For that which I do,I allow not: for what I would,that do I not; but what I hate,that do I. There is not one part of the man that is in Chriſt, but grace has a part of it, and corruption has a part of it: as in the twilight there is light over all, and darkneſs over all too, the darkneſs being mixed in every part with the light. So my renewed part is I, a man having an underſtanding enlightened, a will renewed, affections ſpiritualized, uſing my body conform: but my unrenewed part is I too, having an underſtanding darkened, a will rebellious, affections corrupted, and uſing my body accordingly.
In other words, he said: “I have two natures. I have a flesh nature, an outside nature, and that keeps sinning; and then I have another nature—an inside, a spiritual nature—and that does not like sinning; and with my heart-power, my conscience-power, my love-power, with the power of the divine element that is in me, I look and see what this body outside, which clothes me, is trying to do. And here are twoI’s that are fighting. The insideI is arrayed against the outsideI; and the outside has the advantage.”
1916, S. A. Steel, “Down the James Long Ago—I”, inChristian Advocate, volume77, page1094, column 1:
Am I a double personality? Are there two “I’s” in my anatomy—one a conscious “I,” giving attention to what I am doing, and another unconscious “I,” giving attention to something entirely different?
1962,Arthur Osborne, editor,The Teachings of Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi in His Own Words, London: Rider & Company, published1975,page122:
B. (smiling): Have you come to examine me? You must say who you are. /D.: However much I may try, I do not seem to catch the ‘I’. It is not even clearly discernible. /B.: Who is it that says that the ‘I’ is not discernible? Are there two‘I’s in you, that one is not discernible to the other?
2011, Michael Gluckman,Making Your Wisdom Come Alive: A Guide to the Source of Your Wisdom and Joy, Light Up Your Life,→ISBN:
Who is it that says that ‘I’ is not perceptible? Is there an ignorant ‘I’ and an elusive ‘I’? Are there two‘I’s in the same person? It is the mind that says that ‘I’ is not perceptible. Where is that mind from? Know the mind. You will find it a myth. /We all feel that there is only oneI; not two, one ignorant of the other.
/i/ is from Middle High Germani in open syllables; in Ripuarian fromī before velars.
/iː/ is fromī before non-velars in Ripuarian; fromē in Ripuarian and northern Moselle Franconian; fromie, üe in southern Moselle Franconian; fromæ (œ) in some dialects.
In the German-based spelling,/e/ is usually represented byE (see there).
Use of the digraph IE
In the German-based spelling, longi is generally writtenie except when the German cognate has/iː/ as well and spells iti. Either spelling may be used in the following cases:
when the German cognate has only one vowel letter:Kies,Kis (GermanKäse);
In the Dutch-based spelling, both short/i/ and long/iː/ are generally writtenie except when the Dutch cognate has/i/ and spells iti. The short vowel is optionally indicated in open syllables by doubling the following consonant:piemmele,piemele.

Og så er der forresten lidt mere med det samme:I må love os een ting. mor og far,I må ikke efterligne os unge! — For gørI det, ja, så kommerI til at se så morsomme ud. —I må ikke prøve på at løbe fra jeres alder, for det kanI alligevel ikke.
And by the way, there's something else:You must promise us one thing, mum and dad,you may not imitate us young! — For ifyou do,you will look so funny. —you may not try to run way from your age, foryou can't do that anyway.

The loss of/t͡ʃ/ at first occurs in unstressed positions when the following word begins with a consonant. The pronunciation/iː/ results from restressing the unstressed pronunciation.
