This phrase is an expression of intense dislike. Depending on the form chosen, the tone can shift from a standard expression of dislike to a chillingly formal statement of contempt.

Which one should you use?

The different forms are distinguished by the level of intimacy and the number of people being addressed. তোমাকে is the familiar or standard way to say "you," while তোকে is a very intimate or derogatory form of "you." The polite forms use আপনাকে for a single person or আপনাদের for a group, whereas the familiar forms use তোমাদের or তোদের to address others. Specifically, তোকে is used for very close friends, children or when expressing extreme anger.

Is there a formal and an informal way to say it?

Bengali uses different pronouns to establish social distance. আমি আপনাকে ঘৃণা করি is the polite form, which uses আপনাকে to address a single person. Using this polite version can create a highly formal and chilling tone of contempt. If addressing a group politely, use আমি আপনাদের ঘৃণা করি. For familiar situations, use আমি তোমাকে ঘৃণা করি or আমি তোমাদের ঘৃণা করি. The most informal or intimate form is আমি তোকে ঘৃণা করি, which is used with very close friends, children or during extreme anger.

How does it change in a sentence?
