What is a "Reflexive pronoun"?
6 Answers
At last, paying attention in Language Arts will pay off! An English reflexive pronoun is the word that takes place of multiple people and nouns. Here is a list of them.
Myself
Yourself
Yourselves
Ourselves
Themselves
There may be more but that is all I can remember.
(en inglés y en español)
Reflexive pronouns are special pronouns. So let's back up and examine what pronouns do first: pronouns replace nouns.
Example
Frank and John went to the store. Frank bought him a Pepsi.
In the example above, the pronoun "him" replaces the regular noun "John." That way we don't have to say John again. But please note that "him" is in a different clause than John.
Reflexive pronouns are pronouns that replace nouns that are in the same clause as the nouns they replace.
Example
Frank and John went to the store. John bought himself a Pepsi.
"Himself" replaces John. That way we don't have to say "John bought John a Pepsi." But the pronoun is in the same clause as the noun that it replaces; therefore, we must use the reflexive form. The reflexive form just adds the word "self" onto the end of the regular pronoun.
Pronombres reflexivos son los pronombres especiales. Primero, deberíamos examinar lo que los pronombres hacer: pronombres sustituyen a los sustantivos.
Example
Frank and John went to the store. Frank bought him a Pepsi.
En el ejemplo anterior, el pronombre "him" sustituye al sustantivo regular "John." Entonces, no tenemos que decir de John otra vez. Pero preste atención al hecho que "him" está en una frase diferente que John.
Los pronombres reflexivos son los pronombres que sustituyen a los sustantivos que están en la misma frase como los sustantivos a los que sustituyen.
Example
Frank and John went to the store. John bought himself a Pepsi.
"Himself" sustituye al sustantivo "John." Entonces, no tenemos que decir "John bought John a Pepsi." Pero el pronombre es en la frase misma como el sustantivo al que reemplaza, entonces debemos usar la forma reflexiva. La forma reflexiva sólo es la pronombre regular con el sufijo "-self" al termino.
Perdóneme, por favor. Mi español no es muy bueno y uso el traductor por este (con algunas correcciónes).
For the English pronouns, Eric has already provided the answer (some normal subject pronoun combined with "self". With respect to "reflexive" verbs, the traditional/strict definition would be that the subject and object of the verb refer to the same person(s).
The main problem occurs in discussions of Spanish grammar; many people refer to "se" as a "reflexive" pronoun, even though its use does not correspond to the traditional definition of "reflexive". Given a question, such as, "¿Cómo se dice ...?" There is no reflexivity involved, (what you have is a passive formulation without an expressed subject).
Search the forum for terms such as : "se", "pronominal" and, possibly, "reflexive". for more in depth discussions.
We don't always use them in English. In Spanish it is necessary to say, for example, "Me ducho todos los días." I shower myself everyday. In English we would simply say, "I shower everyday."
Hope this helps
