The Polish word "nią" means "her" and is used as the instrumental case form of "ona" (she).
In a sentence
Widzę ją i chcę rozmawiać z nią.
I see her and want to talk with her.
The word 'nią' is the instrumental case of 'ona' (she), expressing accompaniment or means of action in the prepositional phrase 'z nią', meaning 'with her.'
Podążam za nią przez park.
I follow her through the park.
'Nią' is the instrumental case governed by the preposition 'za,' which here indicates following or pursuing.
Dlatego się nią opiekuję, jest moją przyjaciółką.
That is why I take care of her; she is my friend.
In this usage, 'nią' is the instrumental case object of the verb 'opiekuję się' (I take care of), as the verb requires the object to be in the instrumental case.
