Here are some examples:
I gave him the ball : मैंने उसको गेंद दी
You brought food for me: आप मेरे लिए खाना लाए
We gave them a letter (we gave a letter to them) : हमने उसको पत्र दिया
They cooked food for us: उन्होंने हमारे लिए खाना बनाया
In the sentences above, को = to. के लिए = for.
To be more exact, the dative of a sentence like this ”I give money to the woman” is ”to the woman”.
The dative also has a contracted form as well.
For example, “to me” is मुझको but a contracted form of this is मुझे
“to us” is हमको and the contracted form is हमें
“to you” familar तुमको , contracted form = तुम्हें
“to you” polite आपको no contracted form of आपको
”to him, her” उसको , contracted form = उसे
“to them” उनको , contracted form = उन्हें
Here’s an example of a sentence using a contracted form:
We gave money to him : हमने उसे पैसे दिए...
