I will judge you for your grammar.

According to Professor Babby, sentences like “They gave the prize to my wife and myself” (rather than “to me”) are becoming more normative, and that the reflexive pronoun is being reanalyzed as the dative.

Which is nice and whatever, like how genders and most of the cases disappeared from English.

Am I the only person who thinks “They fed himself and his dog” confusing?
