4. Pronouns after prepositions • Pronouns can stand or be replaced with the same noun yet still have different forms, depending on how they’re being used in a sentence. • You already know subject pronouns and the pronouns used with “gustar”. But pronouns have a different form when they come after prepositions like: “a” (to) “de” (of, from, about) “con”(with) “en” (in, on, at)

5. Pronouns after prepositions (cont.) • The pronouns “mi” and “ti” combine with “con” to make the special forms: • Conmigo – With me • Contigo – with you • With gustar, the phrase formed by “a” and a pronoun can be added to a sentence to clarify or emphasize who likes something.

7. Querer with infinitives • To say what you or others want, use the verb “querer” • The form that you use depends on the subject or who you’re talking about or who you’re talking to. • Just as with “gustar” you can use a noun or an infinitive after a form of “querer” to say what you and others want and want to do.
