Reflexive Pronouns
Do not use reflexive pronouns where a personal pronoun is correct. Saying "Please give it to John and myself" instead of "… to John and me" is a hypercorrection — a mistake caused by trying too hard to sound formal. Also, reflexive pronouns cannot be the subject of a sentence: "Myself went to the shop" is wrong.
