Is there a formal and an informal way to say it?
For informal situations, you can use Comparte conmigo to say "share with me" or Déjame compartir to mean "let me share". In formal situations, you should use Comparta conmigo for "share with me". If you are requesting digital content from a superior or someone you do not know well, the form compártamelo is more appropriate.
How does it change in a sentence?
The phrase compárteme functions as "share [something] with me" because the object being shared is often implied by context. If you want to explicitly include the direct object "it", you can add a suffix to the end. To refer to a masculine noun, such as el archivo or el link, use compártemelo. To refer to a feminine noun, such as la foto or la ubicación, use compártemela. Additionally, note that the word conmigo means "with me" and contigo means "with you".
