"We like mangoes."

Translation: हमें आम पसंद हैं।

When Peter likes something, it's "Peter ko..." but when we like something, it's not "Humay ko..." Why doesn't ko follow all the words: we, you, they...when liking something?

[Wilbur111]

Hum becomes Humay - ie. The ending changes.

You've seen that that's the same with Tu, Thum etc.

If the ending changed for Peter it would have to become Peteray.

That doesn't happen, instead it gets a post position as Peter Ko.

Humay doesn't need Ko because it's already got -ay.

Same thing happened to me. I put ko after ham

[Zaviva]

So it's basically declining the pronoun but in hindi it's done with postposition? As is this case it would be dative? Are there different postpositions for another declinations as well? Thanks

Why is it हमें

[zeebo7]

You have two options for saying "I like something":

मैं कुछ पसंद करता हूँ (I do liking (to) something).

मुझे कुछ पसंद है (To me (from) something liking is).

They may both sound a little cumbersome to English speakers, but this is how it works in Hindi. Same rules go for 'to love'.
