'Him' is an object pronoun used when the subject and object are different; 'himself' is used when they are the same.
'His' shows possession, while 'himself' refers back to the person as the object of an action.
ملاحظات الاستخدام
Use 'himself' only when the subject of the sentence is 'he' or a specific male noun like 'the boy' or 'Mr. Smith'. It can be used for emphasis directly after the noun (The King himself) or at the end of a clause.
أخطاء شائعة
Learners often say 'by his self' instead of 'by himself'. Also, they may use 'him' when the subject and object are the same (e.g., saying 'He washed him' instead of 'He washed himself').
