When to use 'se' when using the Perfecto de Indicativo

Question

I have broken my glasses

Answer 1

I have broken would be present perfect tense in English.

Pretérito perfecto compuesto in Spanish.

I think that you are referring to the pronominal use of se to express unintentional acts or "accidently".

We have a nice thread on that somewhere. I'll see if I can locate it. Maybe someone will explain it while I look for examples. This is the context I love to read about where you shift the blame from the doer to the object. (If only God saw it that way).

something to read while I'm looking-notice the verb romper

This is the best discussion that I have ever read on the pronominal uses of se for expressing completion, suddenly, accidentlally, etc. I found the explanation of the detransitizing se eye opening. Be sure to read the example about breaking the radio.

Lazarus on se

Ooooh... I've never been able to drill down to that level of understanding of the language, nor rise to that level of eloquence! Nice! - Gekkosan, Mar 18, 2010
