Pronouns carry person, number, gender, and case — and the oblique cases have both a long and a short (clitic) form.
Serbian personal pronouns mark person, number, gender, and case. Most oblique cases have a long (stressed) form and a short (clitic) form — short forms are shown in parentheses where they differ.
| Case | I | you | he | she | it | we | you all | they |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nom | ja | ti | on | ona | ono | mi | vi | oni |
| Gen | mene (me) | tebe (te) | njega (ga) | nje (je) | njega (ga) | nas | vas | njih (ih) |
| Dat | meni (mi) | tebi (ti) | njemu (mu) | njoj (joj) | njemu (mu) | nama (nam) | vama (vam) | njima (im) |
| Acc | mene (me) | tebe (te) | njega (ga) | nju (je) | njega (ga) | nas | vas | njih (ih) |
| Instr | mnom | tobom | njim | njom | njim | nama | vama | njima |
| Loc | meni | tebi | njemu | njoj | njemu | nama | vama | njima |
Short clitics can’t follow a preposition — use the long form there (za njega, not *za ga). The 3rd-person plural distinguishes gender only in the nominative: oni (masc), one (fem), ona (neut); all oblique forms are njih / njima. The 1st/2nd person plural share one form for genitive and accusative (nas, vas).
