Which of the two is more correct, when one wants to make sure whether he/she is a subject of the statement (ex. the sentence is addressed at two people, and one of those two people wants to make sure, whether the sentence is addressed at him/her).
You have beautiful eyes.
Me?
or
You have beautiful eyes.
I?
Answer
A case can be made for either, but "Me?" is far more common. The reply "I?" feels stilted and artificial.
