Review Reflexive Verbs: General Use
In a previous lesson we learned about ____________________ verbs. Reflexive Verbs are a
special group of verbs where the action is usually done to _______________ and NOT someone
_______________. These verbs require a _______________ _____________ to describe the
action. Let’s review the categories of reflexive verbs.
There are 3 groups / types of reflexive verbs:
1.
HABITUAL action reflexives: Describe one’s _______________________. a.
2.
3.
Je m’habille à 9h. ! _____________________________________________ IDIOMATIC reflexives: Describe how one is __________________ or ____________________. •
Je m’amuse aujourd’hui. ! _____________________________________________ •
NOTE: idiomatic means: _________________________ so it’s hard to literally translate. RECIPROCAL reflexives: Describe actions one does with __________________ _________________. a.
Nous nous aimons. ! _____________________________________________ Using Reflexive Verbs: Imperative/Commands
Sometimes we want to give _____________ or instructions using reflexive verbs. This can
sometimes be confused with giving commands with Direct Object Pronouns.
3 key things to remember about reflexives in the commands are:
1. NO _____________ to start the sentence, the person we are talking to is implied.
2.
Reflexive pronouns must ______________/ _____________ the person.
3. There are only 3 people we can give commands to:
a. ____________________, __________________. ____________________
Let’s list our imperative reflexive pronouns.
__________ yourself
__________ yourselves / yourself
__________ ourselves

(You all) Brush your teeth. ! Brossez-­‐_________ les dents Let’s brush our teeth. ! Brossons-­‐_________ les dents. *Notice that the pronoun ____________ the person we are giving the command to.
This is how we know that the action is NOT being done to _______________ else.

In the ________________ the pronoun __________returns to its “normal” form of ________. It
also returns back to its “normal” placement _______________ the conjugated verb and
__________ the “negative verb sandwich”.
