9. Compare and Contrast Unlike English, a number of verbs in Spanish can be reflexive and non- reflexive. If the verb acts upon the subject, the reflexive form is used. If the verb acts upon something other than the subject, the non-reflexive form is used. Lola lava los platos.Lola se lava la cara. As the preceding sentence show, reflexive verbs sometimes have different meanings than their non-reflexive counterparts. For example, lavar means to wash, while lavarse means to wash oneself, to wash up.
