Verbos reflexivos – Telling what people do for themselves
1. Compare the following pairs of sentences.
Mariana bathes the
Mariana brushes the
Mariana baña al
Mariana cepilla al
dog.
dog.
perro.
perro.
Mariana bathes
Maria brushes her
Mariana se baña.
Mariana se ceiplla.
herself.
hair.
In the first sentences, Mariana performs the action, and the dog receives the action. In the second
sentences, Mariana both performs and receives the action of the verb. For this reason, the pronoun
se must be used. Se refers back to Mariana in these sentences and is called a “reflexive pronoun.”
It indicates that the action of the verb is reflected back to the subject.
2. Study the forms of a reflexive verb.
Infinitive
lavarse
levantarse
yo
me lavo
me levanto
tú
te lavas
te levantas
Ud., él, ella
se lava
se levanta
nosotros, nosotras nos lavamos nos levantamos
Uds., ellos, ellas
se lavan
se levantan
3. In the negative form, no is placed before the reflexive pronoun.
Aren’t you washing your hands?
¿No te lavas las manos?
The Martinez family doesn’t eat breakfast in the
La familia Martínez no se desayuna en el
dining room.
comedor.
