Conjugating Reflexive Verbs:
Explanation and study guide
Reflexive Pronouns and their definitions:
(Yo): Me = Myself (Nosotros): Nos = Ourselves
(Tú): Te = Yourself
(Él/Ella/Usted): Se = His/Herself (Ellos/Ellas/Ustedes): Se = themselves
Regular verb + reflexive pronoun = Reflexive verb
Example: Preparar + se = Prepararse
A verb is an action that happens. A reflexive verb is a an action that a person does to themselves.
Lavar = to washLavarse = to wash yourself
Secar = to drySecarse = to dry yourself
Subjects: Yo = I Nosotros = weTú = you (informal) Él = he Ellos = themElla = she Ellas = themUsted = you (formal) Ustedes = “you guys”
When to conjugate the verb:
When it is the first verb in the sentence
When it is the only verb in a sentence
When it is separated from other verbs or other parts of the sentence with a comma
When not to conjugate the verb
When it is right after a conjugated verb
When it follows “antes de” (before) and “después de” (after)
When it follows “tener que”
Comprehension Questions
1) How do reflexive verbs differ from verbs that are not reflexive? How can you tell the difference between the two?
2) What is the difference between “arreglar” and “arreglarse?”
3) Why doesn’t this sentence make sense: “Yo me lavo mi perro.” ?
4) When do you conjugate the verb? When should you not conjugate the verb?
Steps to conjugating a reflexive verb
STEP 1: Separate the verb and the reflexive pronoun. You may think that they are together one word, but they are really two separate verbs pushed together.
Lavar = To washse = oneselfLavarme = to wash onself
STEP 2: Conjugate the reflexive pronoun ONLY! The reflexive pronoun ALWAYS has to match the subject.
STEP 3: Decide if you must conjugate the main verb or not.
STEP 4: If yes, conjugate the verb and then put the reflexive pronoun before the word.
STEP 4: If no, leave the verb and just tack the reflexive pronoun right onto the end of it.
