i was here

This phrase is correct. The pronoun "I" is used when referring to oneself, and the past tense of the verb "to be" is "was" for the first person singular.

Examples:

  • I was here yesterday.
  • I was here last week.
  • I was here a few minutes ago.
  • I was here before you arrived.
  • I was here when the event started.

Alternatives:

  • I have been here
  • I came here
  • I visited here
  • I stayed here
  • I arrived here
