Los verbos reflexivos:
Used to describe people doing things for themselves. In English, these are actions such as
brushing one’s teeth, combing one’s hair, showering oneself.
In Spanish, we use reflexive verbs when we want to say someone does something to, at, or for
oneself. The reflexive verbs in Spanish require a reflexive pronoun that will refer to the person
doing the action.
I do
to, at, for
me/myself
You do
to, at, for you /
yourself
We do
to, at, for us/ourselves
x
3
He does
to, at, for himself
she does
to, at, for herself
They do to, at, for them/themselves
all of you do to, at, for yourselves
Here are the reflexive pronouns in Spanish used to show these actions:
Reflexive Pronouns
You still have to conjugate the verb to fit with the subject. With reflexive verbs, there are two
things that always match: What is the rule?
*The ______________________________ and the ________________________ always match.
Here is how we use the reflexive verbs with the reflexive pronouns:
I wake up
We wake up
You wake up
x
He/she/you formal wakes up
They/all of you wake up
Placement of the pronouns will be either BEFORE THE CONJUGATED VERB or ATTACHED TO
THE INFINITIVE: We wake up. – Nos levantamos.
We are going to wake up. Vamos a levantarnos.

4. The students have to get dressed quickly.

5. You shower at night. ________________________________________________
I brush my teeth
We brush our teeth
You brush your teeth

They/all of you brush their teeth
6. They brush their teeth before going to sleep.

7. At what time do you get dressed?
______________________________________________________________
8. I want to get dressed now.
_________________________________________________________________
9. The girl puts on her clothes. ______________________________________________
Fun fact: when you are saying “I brush my teeth,” you just say “los dientes,” not MIS dientes,
because the reflexive verb already tells us whose teeth.
VESTIRSE (e->i)
I dress myself/get dressed
We get dressed
5
You get dressed
x
He/she/you formal gets dressed
They/all of you get dressed

Gramática
Irregular Affirmative Tú Commands (Yes, do it!)
When we want to tell someone (a friend or other person you would address with tú) to do
something, you use a command in the affirmative way (yes, do it).
As you may remember, regular affirmative tú commands like write it, eat it, and prepare it are
formed by taking the _____________________form of the word, dropping the _____, and
adding the ___________________ ending. Then you put an ___________ on the 3 rd to last
syllable.
Then you can add the “it.”
Such as: Escríbela, Cómelo, Prepárala.
Irregular Affirmative Tú Commands :
You still use these commands when you are telling a person to do something. The difference is
that these verbs don’t follow the regular rules above. These irregular rules must be memorized.
Irregulars:
Infinitive
Affirmative Tú Command
Decir
Hacer
Ir
Poner
Salir
Ser
Tener
Venir

4. Tell the truth. _______________________________
5. Set the table. ______________________________
6. Go to your room! ____________________________________
7. Leave from here! _______________________________________
8. Do the homework. _________________________________
Negative Tú commands (No! Don’t do it!)
When you want to tell someone NOT to do something, use a negative command.
Negative tú commands are formed by taking the _________ form of the present tense,
dropping the _________, and adding the opposite “tú” ending.
If you start with an –AR verb, use the –ER/-IR verb ending for “tú.”
HABLAR -> Hablo -> Habl -> Hables. No hables = don’t talk.
If you start with an –ER or –IR verb, take the AR verb ending for “tú.”
ESCRIBIR-> Escribo -> Escrib -> escribas. No escribas = don’t write.
If the yo form is irregular, the same rule applies.
Tener -> tengo -> teng -> Tengas. No tengas miedo = don’t be scared.

Irregular Negative Tú Commands :
Some verbs have irregular forms for negative tú commands. None of the yo forms here end in
yo, which is why they have special forms. Can you guess which infinitive goes with each
command below?
