The sequence of personal pronouns as subject
First of all,thank you for your help😊.
When more than one personal pronouns appear in one sentence as subject, the sequence of singular personal pronoun is 2-3-1,viz. you, he/she, I. And that of plural personal pronoun is 1-2-3.(Please correct me if I‘m wrong)
For example:
1. You, he and I are all students. (Not" I, he and you are all students.")
2. We, you and they all like cats. (Not "You, we and they all like cats.")
But what if there are singular and plural personal pronouns in one sentence at the same time?How do I arrange the order?
For example, should it be" He and we went to the park together." or " We and he went to the park together." ?

About ”some“ and ”any“
First, thank you for your answering.😘
Here is a sentence in a book: -Is he looking for some juice? -Yes, he is. / No, he isn't.
From what we learnt at school, we generally deem that "some" is used in affirmative sentences or interrogative sentences which offer a proposal, that's to say, where the asker wants an affirmative answer. And "any" is used in negative sentences and interrogative sentences which simply ask for information.
The question is: why "some" is used in the sentence above since it, the way I see it, only asks about something and doesn't really suggest?
(Also let me know if it's a trifle😅)
