is there different between "me levanto" and "levanto?"

Question

does it mean the same thing? when do i use each? please help

Answer 1

They can mean the same thing, but the reflexive form is saying I get [myself] up, while levanto merely says that I raise something up.

Me levanto (I am getting up) can be an intransitive sentence by itself.

Levanto being a transitive verb needs a direct object to form a sentence. (I lift/raise [some d.o.])

The reflexive form just means that the something that I am lifting is the same as the subject (I or myself).
