English Grammar Connection: Reflexive Verbs and
Reflexive Pronouns show that the subject of a sentence
both does and receives the action of the verb. The reflexive
pronoun in English end in –self of –selves.
She dried herself with a towel.
Ella se secó con una toalla.


Use Reflexive Pronouns with Reflexive Verbs when the
subject in a sentence is the same as its objects.

Here’s how:
Lavarse (to wash oneself)
Me lavo
Te lavas
Se lava
nos lavamos
os laváis
se lavan


Many verbs can be used with or without reflexive pronouns. When
there is no reflexive pronouns, the person doing the action does not
receive the action.
Anita se lava.
Anita washes herself.

Anita lava los platos.
Anita washes the dishes.
Do not use possessive adjectives with reflexive verbs. Use the definite
article instead.
Anita se lava la cara.
Anita is washing her face.


When an infinitive follows a conjugated verb, the reflexive
pronoun can be placed before the conjugated verb or
attached to the infinitive.
Me voy a acostar a las once. or Voy a acostarme a las once.
I’m going to go to bed at eleven.

Some verbs have different meanings when used reflexively.
dormir  to sleep
poner  to put
dormirse  to fall asleep
ponerse  to put on (clothes)

Pronunciación
pg. 239

In Spanish, vowels are divided into two categories: strong
and weak. A, e, and o are the strong vowels; i and u are
weak. A weak vowel with another vowel forms one sound,
called a dipthong.
Igualmente

demasiado
afeitarse
ciudad
If there are two consecutive vowel, and one has an accent
mark, then each vowel is pronounced separately. The same
is true for two strong vowels.
día
país
frío
leí
toalla zoológico
peor
leer


Present Progressive: To form the present progressive in
Spanish, use the present tense of estar + a present participle.
Here’s how: To inform the present participle of a verb, drop
the ending of the infinitive and add –ando or –iendo.
-ar verbs
caminar  -ando
caminando
-er verbs
poner  -iendo
poniendo
Estamos poniendo la mesa.
-ir verbs
abrir  -iendo
abriendo
We are setting the table.


When the stem of an –er or –ir verbs end in a vowel, change the –iendo
to –yendo.
leer  leyendo

The e  I stem-changing verbs have a vowel change in the stem.
pedir  pidiendo

traer  trayendo
servir  sirviendo
vestir  vistiendo
Some other verbs also have a vowel change in the stem.
decir  diciendo
venir  viniendo
dormir  durmiendo


Place pronouns before the conjugated form of estar or
attach them to the end of the present participle. Add an
accent when you attach a pronoun.
Me estoy vistiendo.
or
Estoy vistiendome.
I’m getting dressed.
