Answer: Option A
Solution (By Examveda Team)
Change, I and my colleague → My colleague and I.
Error in order of pronouns.
Order of Pronoun
Second person(2) + third (3)+ first person(1) in normal sentences. RULE-231
You, he and I have finished the work. (Normal idea)
I, you and he are to blame. ( here Confession of guilt is expressed , it's a negative idea, hence order is 123).
See, error is in order of the pronoun. If pronouns of different persons are to be used together in a sentence, the serial order of persons should be second person and then third person.
Me and My colleague is incorrect grammar.
Me cannot be used as the subject. Me is an objective case of I which should be used as an object. I is nominative case and it should be used as the subject.
can't we say 'me and my colleague' instead of 'my colleague and I'.
