Spanish combines con with two pronouns in special forms.

The idea

Say conmigo for with me and contigo for with you. With él, ella and usted, keep con separate: con él, con ella, con usted.

Examples

  • ¿Quieres venir conmigo al mercado?Do you want to come to the market with me?
  • Voy contigo a la estación.I am going to the station with you.
  • Ana trabaja conmigo los lunes.Ana works with me on Mondays.
  • Me gusta hablar contigo.I like talking with you.
  • Voy al museo con él.I am going to the museum with him.
  • Ella estudia con usted.She studies with you.

Watch out

Do not write con mí or con ti in these meanings; use the single words conmigo and contigo. In voseo regions, con vos is used with vos.
