us

The speaker included

Us is the objective form of we.

You use it to refer to yourself and at least one other person whom you have referred to already, or who is obvious from context: Please email us your itinerary when you have it.

People sometimes use us in a very general way to include themselves in a group such as a family, a company, or a country: Poland supported us in the resolution at the UN.
