📚 Etymology▼
Comes from a combination of three Latin words: 'cum' (with), 'me' (me), and 'cum' (with) again! The Romans would say 'mecum' for 'with me'. Over time in Spanish, 'con' was added to the front for emphasis, eventually forming 'conmigo'.
First recorded: Around the 10th century

Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I just say 'con mí' like I say 'para mí' (for me)?
It's a special rule that survived from Latin. The words for 'with me' ('conmigo') and 'with you' ('contigo') are fused into single words. For all other little words like 'para' (for), 'a' (to), or 'sin' (without), you use the regular form: 'para mí', 'a mí', 'sin mí'.
Is there a word like 'conmigo' for 'he' or 'she'?
Yes! It's 'consigo'. It means 'with himself', 'with herself', 'with themselves', or 'with yourself' (formal 'usted'). For example, 'Él trajo el libro consigo' means 'He brought the book with him'. However, it's a bit more advanced and less common in everyday chat than 'conmigo' or 'contigo'.
