§Grammar and usage
Them is the object form of they ('I helped them', not 'I helped they'); avoid 'them books' in standard English (say 'those books'); themselves is the reflexive form (not 'theirselves' or 'themself' in formal English).
अक्सर पूछा जाता है: them, they का object रूप है ('I helped them', 'I helped they' नहीं); मानक English में 'them books' से बचें ('those books' कहें); themselves reflexive रूप है (औपचारिक English में 'theirselves' या 'themself' नहीं)।
Error-spotting tip: 'Them are mine' is wrong; say 'They are mine' or 'Those are mine'.
Error-spotting युक्ति: 'Them are mine' गलत है; 'They are mine' या 'Those are mine' कहें।
