    changing pronouns

    Hey I was wondering how you would differentiate between pronouns.

    Like when you say I like her, would it be Я люблю её?

    And then if you were saying I'm speaking to him, would that be like Я говорю ему?

    Cause Im trying to say "I hurt myself without thinking what was going to happen to me" and I have no clue how to put the "me"

    Would these be the only cases you would use or would it depend?

    Im a noob at pronouns so youll have to forgive me! Thanks A lot...Again!

    Personal pornouns decline depending on the case, just like nouns do. I suggest finding a table with all the pronouns declined and try to memorize it.

    Now, when to use the right declined personal pronoun is not always obvious It really depends on the verb. Most of them are intuitive, like the verb 'give' uses dative (give to someone) and the verb 'love' uses accusative (love someone). But some, like 'interest' requires instrumental (я интересуюсь водкой - I am interested in vodka), you just have to know...
