8. The idea of reflexives in English:
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.
The idea of reflexives in English:
I do to, at, for me/myself
We do to, at, for ourselves
You do to, at, for you / yourself x
He she you (f) does to, at, for himself/herself/yourself (f)
They do/all of you do to, at, for themselves/all of yourselves

9. The reflexive pronouns:me
nos te x se
Note: LE and LES are not reflexive! Those are used when you are doing /giving something to someone ELSE

10. Andrés se lastimó. = Andrés hurt himself.
Me desperté a las siete y media. = I woke up at seven thirty.
*With reflexive verbs, there are two things that always match: What is the rule?
*The ________________ and the verb _____________ always match.

11. Put the reflexive pronoun BEFORE the conjugated verb:
¿Cuándo se levantó Marcos? = When did Marcos get up?
Put the reflexive pronoun AFTER the infinitive (attached).
No debes preocuparte. = You shouldn’t worry.

12. IF you have 2 verbs, you have 2 ways to say a sentence using a reflexive pronoun!
Before the conjugated verb OR
Attached to the infinitive

13. -If you want to sound more like a native speaker, you can put the reflexive pronoun before the conjugated verb if there is an infinitive later in the sentence:
Por ejemplo:
No te debes preocupar. =
You shouldn’t worry (yourself).
¿Cuándo se va a bañar? =
When is she going to bathe (herself)?

In Spanish, we can also use reflexive verbs to express the idea of “each other” or “one another.”

“one another” refers to three or more = The students in the class share with one another.

Mauricio and Mariana said hello.
(The “to each other” is implied but not stated)

32. Se impersonal:
In Spanish, we can use the pronoun “se” in order to avoid specifying the person who is doing the action of the verb.
For example:
Se vende casa = House for sale.
Se aquila apartamento = Apartment for rent.

33. In these expressions, you are indicating that SOMEONE is selling a house or renting an apartment, but that you either don’t know who the person is or you are choosing not to identify him or her.

34. The Spanish reflexives can be used for both of these cases.
When you use se, the verb is always in the third person. It could be either the he/she form or the they form.

35. ~If the noun that follows the verb is singular, the verb is in the él/ella/usted form:
Aquí se habla español = Spanish is spoken here.
A. How would you say, Guitar for sale = ___________________________
How do you (does one) turn off the vacuum cleaner? = _____________________________________________

36. ~If the noun that follows the verb is plural, you use the ellos/ellas/ustedes form of the verb.
Aquí se reparan carros = Cars are repaired here.
B. How would you say, Books for sale = ___________________________

37. You can use this construction with se in all tenses.
For example:
Se hizo mucho = A lot was done. (a type of passive voice)
Se había hecho mucho = A lot has been done.
Se hará mucho = A lot will be done.
How would you say, “Strange things (cosas raras) were said = _________________________________

How does one say “ice cream?” in English? _________________________________________________________________
