la, nos, los, las) with verbs. In this photo the girl is hiding a ball behind her back. She says…

Notice that the subject (yo) and the direct object (la) are different.

Reflexive verbs take a special pronoun called a reflexive pronoun. While the usual direct

object is different from the subject, a reflexive pronoun is the same person, place or thing as

the subject. Me escondo.

I’m hiding (myself).The subject (yo) and the

Direct object (me) are

The same person;

You call this objectReflexive.

Step 1: Remove the ending –se.Step 2: Add the appropriate reflexive pronoun

A verb used reflexively tells you that only the subject of the verb is involved in the action. When using a reflexive verb in the infinitive form, attach the

pronoun to the infinitive. Vamos a pelearnos por el cuaderno. We are going to fight over the notebook.
