Language / Tego/Jego [15]

Hi!
I'm Monica, I'm native Polish and I think I can help you with your little grammar problem ;)
In Polish: nouns, adjectives, most of pronouns and numerals decline by: numbers, genders and cases.
There is a very huge difference between ‘jego’, ‘go’ and ‘tego’.
- ‘go’ is a personal pronoun which means ‘him’, for ex. I like him: Lubię go/Ja go lubię
and here is the list of Polish personal pronouns:
-singular -plural
Nom.-Who? I - ja (subject) we - my
Gen.-Whom? Who?
in negatives -me - mnie -us - nas
Dat. -Who do you trust/
give/believe -me - mnie/ mi -us - nam
Acc.
-Who can you see? -me - mnie -us - nas
Ins.
-Who are you talking to?
Who are you dancing with?-to/with me - ze mną -to/with us - z nami
Loc.
-Who are you thinking about?-about me - o mnie -about - us
Voc. -Oh!-Oh me/I ! - och ja!-Oh we! - och my!
Nom.- -you - ty -you - wy
Gen.- -you - ciebie -you - was
Dat. - -you - tobie/ci -you - wam
Acc. -you - ciebie/ cię -you - was
Ins. - -to/with you - z tobą -you - z wami
Loc.- -about you - o tobie -you - o was
Voc.- -oh you! - och ty! -you ! - oh wy!
Nom.- -he - on -they - oni
Gen.- -him - go -them - ich
Dat. - -him - jemu/mu -them - im
Acc.- -him - go, jego -them - ich
Ins. - -him - z nim -them - z nimi
Loc.- -him - o nim -them - o nich
Voc.- -he! - on! -they! - oni!
Nom.- -she - ona -they - one
Gen.- -her - jej -them - ich
Dat. - -her - jej -them - im
Acc.- -her - ją -them - ich
Ins. - -her - z nią -them - z nimi
Loc.- -her -o niej -them - o nich
Voc.- -she! - ona! -they! - oni!

Remember! Nouns, pronouns, numerals have got the gender In Polish grammar:
1)singular: masculine, feminine, neuter
2)plural:
a) masculine:
- personal (masculine words and ‘group words’ including both men and women),
- impersonal (animate - animals), inanimate(- things, plants, natural phenomena) !they are masculine in singular and in plural they decline just like feminine words!
b) feminine: includes words which were in feminine or neuter gender in singular

- word ‘jego’ is a possessive pronoun (use ‘jego’ as a personal noun when you say it at the beginning of the phrase to emphasize: ‘he is the one I love the most’ - ‘Jego {singular, Accusative} kocham najbardziej’) ! As a possessive pronoun it means ‘his’

- word ‘tego’ is a demonstrative pronoun not a personal pronoun. You use Polish demonstrative pronouns like ‘this’, ‘that’, ’these’, ’those’ in English to say for ex. This is my friend Kate - To jest moja przyjaciółka Kasia, I won’t put this sweater on. - Nie założę tego swetra. So if you don’t like to make the mistakes like this in the future, think about things as humans - a car - ‘he’, a spoon - ‘she’ etc. ;D

Have a good fun with difficult Polish language and forgive me the mistakes I’ve made!
