💡 Grammar Points

A Special Combination

'Conmigo' is a special word that combines 'con' (with) and 'mí' (me) into one. You never say 'con mí'.

The 'Contigo' Connection

Just like 'conmigo' means 'with me', the word 'contigo' means 'with you' (when talking to one friend, the 'tú' form). They are a pair!

❌ Common Pitfalls

Mixing up 'mí' and 'conmigo'

Mistake: "Él viene con mí."

Correction: Él viene conmigo. In Spanish, 'con' and 'mí' always fuse together to become the single word 'conmigo'. This only happens with 'mí' and 'ti' (which becomes 'contigo').

⭐ Usage Tips

Inviting and Including

Use 'conmigo' anytime you want to invite someone to join you or to say that something is happening in your company. It's a very friendly and essential word.

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'.
