    ENGLISH GRAMMAR

    REFLEXIVEPRONOUNS

    REFLEXIVE PRONOUNS
    The reflexive pronouns are:
    REFLEXIVE PRONOUNS 1st person
    S I N G U L A R

    myself yourself himself herself itself ourselves yourselves themselves

    2nd person 3rd person 3rd person 3rd person

    P L U R A L

    1st person 2nd person 3rd person

    We use reflexive pronouns when the subject and the object are the same. Compare:
    Mary made John a cup of coffee Mary made herself a cup of coffee (= Mary made the coffee for John) (= Mary made the coffee for herself)

    By myself / by yourself / by himself, etc can mean alone or without help I dont live with anybody. I live with myself. I cant move this table by myself. Can you help me? She did it by herself.

    We can use reflexive pronouns for emphasis:


    Maria repaired the bike by herself. He built the house himself. (= nobody else repaired) (= nobody helped him)
