REFLEXIVE VERBS

Reflexive verbs are used when the action is being done to the doer of the action. That
means the subject and object of the verb is the same person.
In this way, reflexive verbs “reflect” the action back onto the doer.
Reflexive verbs use the reflexive pronoun before the verb and they can be identified in the
infinitive by the reflexive pronoun ‘se’ at the end of the verb.
eg. Lllamarse - to call oneself 

The reflexive pronouns are:

Me - myself Te - yourself
Se - him/her/itself/ themselves Nos - ourselves
