yourself pronoun
§Grammar and usage

The plural is yourselves (not 'yourselfs' or 'yourself' for a group).

Plural yourselves है ('yourselfs' गलत है, और समूह के लिए 'yourself' भी गलत है)।

Verbs such as enjoy, avail, absent, pride and behave need a reflexive object, so 'Enjoy yourselves' is correct and 'Enjoy' alone or 'Enjoy you' is wrong in this sense.

Enjoy, avail, absent, pride और behave जैसे verbs को reflexive object चाहिए, इसलिए 'Enjoy yourselves' सही है और इस अर्थ में केवल 'Enjoy' या 'Enjoy you' गलत है।

Do not use a reflexive pronoun as the subject or in place of you, so 'Radhika and yourselves are invited' is wrong and 'Radhika and you are invited' is correct.

Reflexive pronoun को subject के रूप में या you की जगह प्रयोग नहीं करते, इसलिए 'Radhika and yourselves are invited' गलत है और 'Radhika and you are invited' सही है।
