§Grammar and usage
Themselves (not 'theirselves' or 'themself' in formal English); 'each other' (between two people) is different from themselves ('They blamed themselves' means each blamed himself or herself; 'They blamed each other' means each blamed the other).
अक्सर पूछा जाता है: themselves (औपचारिक English में 'theirselves' या 'themself' नहीं); 'each other' (दो लोगों के बीच) themselves से भिन्न है ('They blamed themselves' अर्थात हर एक ने स्वयं को दोष दिया; 'They blamed each other' अर्थात हर एक ने दूसरे को दोष दिया)।
