Verbos Reciprocos
Actions we do to each other!
Reciprocal Actions
• Get conjugated like reflexive verbs.
• Only happen in Nosotros, Vosotros and Ellos
forms. (Because you need 2 to reciprocate)

Some examples:

(Last year, my aunt and uncle got married)
Cuando los invitados llegaron a la boda, se
saludaron.
(When the guests arrived, they greeted each
other.
Rules of pronoun placement
• Same old, same old:
1 verb, pronoun goes in front of the verb.

rules as verb pairs.
