Hello,
I don't know if this applies to English, too.
In German, it is bad to start something with "I".
Example:
Question:
Who will be at the party tonight?
Bad answer:
I, Tom, and Mark will be at the party tonight.
Good answer:
Tom, Mark, and I will be at the party tonight.
But as said: This is for the German language!
What about English?
Doesn't it matter if you tell yourself first and then the rest?
Or is it better first to tell all the others and to tell yourself in the end?
Cheers!
