palīdzēt is a common verb used to offer or request assistance. In Latvian, the person receiving help is usually in the dative case (e.g., 'man', 'tev', 'studentiem'), so you say 'palīdzēt man' (help me) rather than using the accusative. It appears in many everyday contexts (asking for help, offering support, describing assistance).
