Me, Myself and I
The Synergese language, an English-Robotic pidgin favoured by the corporate underclasses of North-America, is notable for its peculiar treatment of first person pronouns. When the first person is juxtaposed with the third in either subject or predicate, the ‘me’ or ‘I’ form is replaced with the idiosyncratic ‘myself.’ For example:
“Copy the TPS report to me.”
“Copy the TPS report to Linda and myself.”
“I prioritized these actionables.”
“Either John or myself will action these priorities.”
This useful convention eliminates the need to distinguish subject from predicate, an insurmountably difficult operation for many Synergese. (See also ‘He, She and They: Gender neutrality in Synergese third person singular pronouns.’)
