Stressed Personal Pronouns

Level 3

Full personal-pronoun forms are used after prepositions and for emphasis or contrast.

How It Works

Full personal-pronoun forms are used after prepositions and for emphasis or contrast. Their case still depends on the governing verb or preposition.

After a preposition, learn the whole phrase and its case: o njej, z njim, pri meni. Some short preposition-pronoun combinations are written together, such as zame. Do not use a free clitic as if it were a full form after any preposition.

Examples (3)

  1. To je zame.

    This is for me.

  2. Govorim o njej.

    I am talking about her.

  3. Pomagaj meni, ne njemu.

    Help me, not him.
