We have now finished important part of grammar i.e. Tenses
Let us move towards different forms of pronouns used for preposition

In English with preposition is used as with me, with him etc.
with in Marathi is рдмрд░ोрдмрд░ (barobar)
with me -->рдоाрдЭ्рдпा рдмрд░ोрдмрд░  ( mAjhyA barobar )
with you --> рддुрдЭ्рдпा рдмрд░ोрдмрд░  ( tujhyA barobar )

You can observe that preposition in Marathi comes after noun. So it is rather postposition!!
Also note that while using preposition in English; for I we used Me; for He we used Him.
Similarly in Marathi for рдоी (mI ) we used рдоाрдЭ्рдпा( mAjhyA )
For рддू ( tU ) we used рддुрдЭ्рдпा ( tujhyA )

This changed forms are called рд╕ाрдоाрди्рдп рд░ूрдк (sAmAnya rUp) in Marathi or Oblique case form in English.

Below table list such forms. So by appending the preposition we can create required word

Note :- for "He" and This(male) etc. there are two рд╕ाрдоाрди्рдп рд░ूрдк (sAmAnya rUp) are mentioned. Both are grammatically correct. But first form viz. рдд्рдпाрдЪ्рдпा(tyAchyA), рд╣्рдпाрдЪ्рдпा (hyAchyA)etc. are used more frequently than second form viz. рдд्рдпा(tyA),рд╣्рдпा(hyA) etc..
Second form is generally used in formal Marathi writing.

The pronoun for "self" is рд╕्рд╡рддः (svatH) and its рд╕ाрдоाрди्рдп рд░ूрдк (sAmAnya rUp) is same i.e. рд╕्рд╡рддः (svatH)
