yourself = me afeito

a dog = afeito

Me afeito todos los días. I shave (myself) every day.

Afeito a mi perro una vez al mes. I shave my dog one time a (per) month.

What Tosh is saying is that this verb can be reflexive (meaning, for example, that if you are shaving yourself, you are the object of the verb).

If you are shaving yourself, you would say "me afeito."

For the rest of the reflexive present indicative, look up the conjugation for afeitarse.

For those of us just learning Spanish, the reflexive is a bit difficult.

Cheers.

Are you shaving yourself? Or maybe a dog?

It matters...
