How to play C♯m(add11) on guitar
The most common way, the first shape above: your little finger on the A string at the 4th fret, your middle finger on the D string at the 2nd fret, your index finger on the G string at the 1st fret, your ring finger on the B string at the 2nd fret and your ring finger on the high E string at the 2nd fret. Don’t play the low E string.

An easier C♯m(add11)
The full shape is a barre chord, hard at first. This one needs no full barre and sounds much the same: your index finger on the A string at the 4th fret, your middle finger on the D string at the 4th fret, your little finger on the G string at the 6th fret and your ring finger on the B string at the 5th fret. Let the high E string ring open. Don’t play the low E string.
