SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION FOR BETTER UNDERSTANDING

Reflexive pronouns and intensive pronouns may look exactly the same, but they serve very different functions in
sentences.

For example: 
The pronoun himself can be either a reflexive or an intensive pronoun, depending on how it is used. A
reflexive pronoun reflects back on the subject of the sentence while an intensive pronoun
adds emphasis or intensity to a noun.
 Reflexive: Drew decided to treat himself to a fancy dinner. 
 Intensive: Jonathan built the shed in the backyard all by himself.

What is a Reflexive Pronoun? 

A reflexive pronoun is a pronoun that “reflects” directly back onto the subject of the sentence. These
pronouns always end in -self or -selves, such as himself or themselves, and they are essential to understanding
the meaning of the sentence. 
For example: 

 The Robinsons were annoying neighbors; they kept inviting themselves over to our house! 

What is an Intensive Pronoun? 

An intensive pronoun is a pronoun that intensifies the subject. These pronouns also end in -self or -selves,
such as herself or ourselves, but they are not essential to understanding the meaning of the sentence. 
For example: 

 The Robinsons themselves showed up uninvited to our house last night!
