Quick Latin Grammar question

Mihi has the sense of "to me", as in "Speak to me".
Me has the sense "me" as in "Speak 'me'".

Can I piggyback on this thread and ask:

is "Ubi ego sum? a correct translation of "where am I?"

Yes, but beause "I" is implied in sum, you can drop ego unless you wish to
put emphasis on "I".

Ubi --> where
ego --> I
sum --> I am -- or -- am I

Thanks George.
From my two years of Latin long, long ago, I was vaguely aware of the fact that 'ego' isn't needed.
Spanish (which I know much better) is the same - ie. 'Donde soy?' is all that's needed but for emphasis one can say: Donde soy yo?

I was also unsure about the question mark in Latin. After a little search I learned that it dates from the 8th century A.D. So, it didn't exist in the Roman 'Golden Age'.

BTW
My interest in the phrase: 'where am I?' comes from a talk I recently attended having to do with 'mindfulness'. Asking the question, 'where am I?' was described as a means or a device to 'turn one's attention to the moment'.

You're welcome, jjorge.
