Webster's 1828 Dictionary

How the English word “i” was understood when the King James Version was still the common Bible of English readers.

I, pronoun

[Latin ego.]

The pronoun of the first person; the word which expresses one's self, or that by which a speaker or writer denotes himself. It is only the nominative case of the pronoun; in the other cases we use me. i am attached to study; study delights me. We often hear in popular language the phrase it is me, which is now considered to be ungrammatical, for it is i But the phrase may have come down to us from the use of the Welsh mi, or from the French use of the phrase, c'est moi.
