Reflexive/Intensive
 Reflexive
Pronouns refer to another
pronoun in the sentence and indicate that
the same person or thing is involved.
 Intensive
Pronouns add emphasis to a
noun or another pronoun—can be taken
out of the sentence and still make sense.
 THEY END IN SELF/SELVES
Reflexive/intensive types

myself
ourselves
