'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.
نکات کاربردی
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.
اشتباهات رایج
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').
