that is directed at the agent

Reflexive Pronouns
me myself
te yourself (informal)
se himself
se herself
se-yourself (formal)
se-oneself
se-itself
se-themselves
se= yourselves
nos-ourselves

Chorus:
Dont be so quick to conjugate (reflexive verbs)
You gotta take that pronoun and rearrange (and make a change)
If a reflexive verb is infinitive
Baby change that pronoun; leave it at the end
lavar/lavarse
Te lavas.
Reflexive verb or not?
T quieres lavarte.
Is the question youve got to ask.
Is it an action you do to yourself?
despErtar/despErtarse
Or something on which you act?
(e>ie)
You could wake yourself,
Yo me depierto.
And thatd be reflexive babe.
Yo despierto a ella.
If you wake someone else,
duchar/ducharse
Then it aint.
Me ducho.
To conjugate reflexive verbs
Yo voy a ducharme.
You take the se
You stick it in your pocket and you conjugate.
cepillar/cepillarse
When youre done with that
Me cepillo.
Then you take the pronoun out.
Yo quiero cepillarme.
Then you turn it around
Se cepilla el pelo.
and you stick it in the front.
Chorus
I dont need no one to help me to shave my beard.
You could help me out,
But, frankly, that would be weird.
When the action doer
(subject)
And the action receiver
(object)
Are the same people or thing
Then it is reflexive.
Chorus
