"I" meaning in Middle English

See I in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Pronoun

IPA: /iː/, /i/ [unstressed] Forms: me [accusative], min [genitive], mi [determiner, genitive], min [determiner, genitive]
Etymology: From Old English iċ, from Proto-West Germanic *ik, from Proto-Germanic *ek, Proto-Germanic *ik, from Proto-Indo-European *éǵh₂. More at English I. The loss of /t͡ʃ/ at first occurs in unstressed positions when the following word begins with a consonant. The pronunciation /iː/ results from restressing the unstressed pronunciation.
