Hi,

can you tell me when you use "Here I come." and "Here we come." if you use these expressions often in your daily conversation?


I'd appreicate it if you would give me some example situations (or sentences). Many thanks.

It's a kind of warning you give to get attention when you are going to do something that's a little risky, amusing, or at least, worth watching.

example:
Jim: "Check this out I'm going to do a double back flip off the 15 meter diving platform".

Everyone:- Oh wow, Excellent Dude!

Jim: (standing on the edge of the 15 meter platform)
"OK - Here I come!" (He leaps off the 15 meter platform and does a magnificent bellyflop.)
