A Reflexive Verb
A verb is reflexive if the subject and the
object are the same. Each reflexive verb is
made up of two parts. The first part is
called the reflexive pronoun and the verb
that comes after it is called the reflexive
verb.
Example: Me llamo Bob.
In the above sentence ‘llamo’ is the
reflexive verb.
What Is A Reflexive Pronoun?
Reflexive pronouns come before a
reflexive verb to indicate that the subject is
performing the action on itself.
Example: Me llamo Bob.
In the above sentence ‘me’ is the reflexive
pronoun.
