How to Say "with you" in Spanish
The Spanish word for “with you” is “contigo” — A1 level. This is a very common word in everyday Spanish.
Examples
¿Puedo ir contigo al cine?
Can I go with you to the movies?
No estoy de acuerdo contigo.
I don't agree with you.
Siempre es divertido hablar contigo.
It's always fun to talk with you.
A Special Combo Word
In Spanish, you don't say 'con tú'. Instead, the words 'con' (with) and 'tú' (you) squish together to make one special word: 'contigo'.
Only for 'tú'
Remember to use 'contigo' only when you're talking to someone you would call 'tú' (the informal, friendly 'you'). For the formal 'usted', you keep the words separate: 'con usted'.
Saying 'con tú'
Mistake: “Voy a la fiesta con tú.”
Correction: Voy a la fiesta contigo. Spanish has a special rule that combines 'con' + 'tú' into the single word 'contigo'. It's a must-know!
Mixing up 'contigo' and 'conmigo'
Mistake: “Gracias por venir contigo. (Said by the person who was accompanied)”
Correction: Gracias por venir conmigo. These two sound alike! Remember: 'conTigo' is about 'Tú' (you), and 'conMigo' is about 'Me' (me).
