§18. ОН

The pronoun он has this stem in the nominative forms only. All the other forms have a stem [y-]. The Pn form has the ending [-ji]. The Fg and a has the ending [-оуo]. The F endings have [e] instead of [o]. All the accusative forms, regardless of gender or animation, are the same as the genitives.

After prepositions the stem [у-] is replaced by [nj-]: от него "from him," с ним "with him," в нём "in it," and so on; excepted are the g forms as possessors of a noun: от его брата "from his brother," у её брата "at her brother's, in her brother's possession," в их стране "in their country."
