The forms with н- are used after prepositions, for example: Без неё нельзя. - It’s impossible without her. е́ю is the older, historical instrumental form. In Old Russian and Church Slavonic, the instrumental singular feminine ending was -ею. Modern Russian retained ей as the standard, but е́ю survived in: Poetry — for meter and rhyme High literary prose — for stylistic effect Set phrases and fixed expressions Official/legal documents (occasionally)
