Reflexive verbs

• In this presentation, we are going to look at a special group of verbs called reflexive

• Let’s start out by thinking of the English verb to wash. List several things that you can wash.

Page 3: Reflexive verbs Los verbos reflexivos Reflexive verbs In this presentation, we are going to look at a special group of verbs called reflexive Let’s start

Some examples

• I wash my clothes• I wash the dishes• I wash the car• I wash the windows• I wash my hands• I wash my hair

Page 4: Reflexive verbs Los verbos reflexivos Reflexive verbs In this presentation, we are going to look at a special group of verbs called reflexive Let’s start

What’s the difference?

• I wash my clothes. I wash the dishes. I wash the car. I wash the windows.

• I can wash things that are not part of me, that is, they are not part of my body.

• In Spanish, we say, “lavo la ropa, lavo los platos, lavo el coche, lavo las ventanas”

Page 5: Reflexive verbs Los verbos reflexivos Reflexive verbs In this presentation, we are going to look at a special group of verbs called reflexive Let’s start

…and…

• I wash my hands. I wash my hair. I wash my face

• I also wash things on my body: hands, face, hair (unless you wear a toupee)

• In Spanish, we say, “me lavo las manos, me lavo el pelo, me lavo la cara”

Page 6: Reflexive verbs Los verbos reflexivos Reflexive verbs In this presentation, we are going to look at a special group of verbs called reflexive Let’s start

And your point is…?

• Lavo la ropa, lavo los platos, lavo el coche, lavo las ventanas.

• Me lavo las manos, me lavo el pelo, me lavo la cara.

• If you are washing something that is attached to your body, you need to add the word me

Page 7: Reflexive verbs Los verbos reflexivos Reflexive verbs In this presentation, we are going to look at a special group of verbs called reflexive Let’s start

Huh?

• There are two ways to talk about washing in Spanish

• First, to wash something else

• Second, to wash part of one’s body

Page 8: Reflexive verbs Los verbos reflexivos Reflexive verbs In this presentation, we are going to look at a special group of verbs called reflexive Let’s start

Lavarse

• Here are the forms:

Me lavo nos lavamos

Te lavas os laváis

Se lava se lavan

• “Me, te, se, nos, os, se” forms are called reflexive pronouns

Page 9: Reflexive verbs Los verbos reflexivos Reflexive verbs In this presentation, we are going to look at a special group of verbs called reflexive Let’s start

How do you get those forms?

• The infinitive has a se attached to it to show that the subject is doing something to him/herself

• Drop the se

• Change the verb ending

• Put the appropriate -ar, -er, or –ir conjugation of the verb.

Whew! That’s a lot to remember

• True! But keep in mind that the verb

changes as it always does. You just have

to remember to use the reflexive

pronouns (me, te, se, nos, os, se) if you

see an infinitive that ends in se
