What is reflexive verbs?

Reflexive verbs are verbs in which the subject of the sentence performs the action on itself. In other words, the subject and the object of the verb are the same. Reflexive verbs are common in many languages, including Spanish, French, Italian, and German.

In English, reflexive verbs are formed by adding a reflexive pronoun (myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves) to the end of the verb. For example, "I washed myself" or "She cut herself".

Reflexive verbs are often used to talk about actions that a person does to themselves, such as grooming, washing, or dressing. They can also be used to talk about emotions or mental states, such as feeling proud of oneself or congratulating oneself.

In many languages, reflexive verbs are conjugated differently than non-reflexive verbs. It is important to learn the conjugation patterns for reflexive verbs in order to use them correctly in conversation.
