Use conmigo and contigo

Con combines with mí and ti to form conmigo and contigo; do not say con mí or con ti in standard usage.

¿Quieres venir conmigo?
Do you want to come with me?Con plus mí becomes conmigo.

Keep other subject-shaped forms

Use él, ella, usted, nosotros, vosotros, ellos, or ustedes after a preposition, preserving the written accent in él.

Voy con ella, pero esto es para él.
I am going with her, but this is for him.Ella and él follow prepositions.
