Nice one. Could you explain why "She sings better than me" is grammatically wrong while " She sings better than I" is right? Considering 'me' is an objective pronoun that usually comes after the main verb in a sentence, it would make more sense that the first sentence is correct. 'She sings better than I do' would be correct, too.

Thanks. Most of our graduates doesn't know the rules of concord in English language.

Afolearning:
When you say 'You sing better than I' , the complete sentence is 'you sing better than I do. ' Obviously, you can't say YOU SING BETTER THAN ME DO. THAT WILL BE GRAMMATICALLY WRONG. WHEN 'THAN' is used in a sentence, it means the other part of the sentence is ellipted(deliberately) left out, and to start the other part of the sentence, you can start with an objective case of pronoun.

ENGLISH GRAMMAR

CASE OF PRONOUNS
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Pronouns are words used instead of nouns, that is, they are used to replace nouns in sentences.

The prominent advantage of pronouns is that it helps prevent unnecessary repetition of nouns in sentences.

On the other hand, CASE of PRONOUNS is the FORMS and FUNCTIONS of pronouns in sentences.

We have the following case of pronouns in English:

SUBJECTIVE CASE : it is used in subject position and often comes before the verb in a sentence, e.g. SHE, HE, IT, YOU, THEY and I.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
OBJECTIVE CASE : it is comes after the verb ,that is, it is the element that receives the action performed by the subject, e.g ME, HER, HIM, THEM, YOU, and US.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
POSSESSIVE CASE: It is used to show possession or ownership, e.g. MINE, OURS, HIS, HERS, THEIRS and ITS.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
REFLEXIVE CASE: It is used to mark a reference back to the subject, and it often ends with the suffix 'self or selves'. Here are examples: MYSELF, HIMSELF, YOURSELF/VES, THEMSELVES, HERSELF and ITSELF.
