  1. Los Reflexivos Paso a paso

  2. Los básicos • Reflexive actions are actions that are done to oneself. (I wash my hands. You brush your teeth) • In Spanish, you can tell if a verb is reflexive by the “SE” on the end of it. Lavar = to wash Lavarse= to wash oneself Vestir = to dress Vestirse= to dress oneself Poner = to put Ponerse= to put on oneself

  3. Some common reflexive verbs:

  4. Reflexive pronouns: Go in front of the conjugated verb.

  5. Steps to making a reflexive verb… • Remove the “SE” from the end. • Choose the correct pronoun to match your subject. • Conjugate the rest of the verb normally. • DON’T FORGET… you still have to remove the verbs ending before you conjugate! • EX: BAÑARSE (yo)  me baño. • EX: DUCHARSE (tú)  ? • EX: DORMIRSE (él)  ?

  6. Practiquemos: Conjugate these reflexive verbs on your whiteboard • LAVARSE – nosotros • PONERSE – yo • ACOSTARSE* (o ue) – ellos • VESTIRSE* (ei) – tú • DESPERTARSE* (eie) – él • LEVANTARSE – Ud. • CEPILLARSE – ella • DUCHARSE – vosotros *Pay special attention to stem changes! It’s easy to forget when you are concentrating on pronouns!

  7. Check your answers • LAVARSE – nosotrosnoslavamos • PONERSE – yo me pongo • ACOSTARSE (o ue) – ellos se acuestan • VESTIRSE (ei) – Tútevistes • DESPERTARSE (eie) – él se despierta • LEVANTARSE – Ud. se levanta • CEPILLARSE – ella se cepilla • DUCHARSE – vosotrososducháis

  8. Remember, for a verb to be reflexive the person doing the action must also receive the action. • Sometimes this is tricky to determine. • Always ask … who is “verbing”? What/who is being verbed? If it’s the same person, then its REFLEXIVE. • Talk about these samples with a friend for 30 seconds: • I eat a sandwich. • We make lunch. • She puts her shoes on. • They do their homework.

  9. ¿Reflexivo o no?Read each sentence and decide. • Yo ___ el pelo. lavo me lavo • Tú ___ el perro. cepillas te cepillas • Ellos ___el desayuno. comen se comen • Paco ___ la tarea. hace se hace • Mi padre ___ temprano. despierta se despierta • Nosotros ___ la cara. • Sancho ___ en la chaqueta. viste se viste • Ellas ___ a las nueve. acuestan se acuestan • Manuel ___ a su prima. Despierta se despierta

  10. Reflexives with body parts… • Always use articles (el, la, los, las) NOT possessive adjectives (mi, tus, sus, etc) • Possessives aren’t necessary bc you have a reflexive pronoun that tells you who is getting verbed. • On your whiteboard write these in Spanish. • She paints her nails. (pintarse/las uñas) • He shaves his face. (afeitarse/la cara) • They brush their hair. (cepillarse/el pelo).

  11. Position of reflexive pronouns. • In a one verb sentence, the pronoun goes before the verb. Ducharse Yo me ducho. • In a two verb sentences there are options: Before the first verb. -OR- after the 2nd verb. EX: Menecesitolavar. -OR- Necesitolavarme. Both are correct, you can choose!  Discuss with a partner: We have to (tenerque) wake up early.  Nostenemosquedespertartemprano. Tenemosquedespertarnostemprano.

  12. Practiquemos: Escribe en español. • He is going to shower. (Ir + a + ducharse) • They want to take off. (Querer + quitarse) • She has to bathe. (Tener + que + bañarse) • We need to dress. (Necesitar + vestirse) • You prefer to wake up. (Preferir + despertarse) • I have just gotten up. (Acabar + de+ levantarse)

  13. Checatusrespuestas: • He is going to shower. ( Va a ducharse) • They want to take off. (Quieren quitarse) • She has to bathe. (Tengo que bañarme) • We need to dress. (Necesitamos vestirnos) • You prefer to wake up. (Prefieres despertarte) • I have just gotten up. (Acabo de levantarme) • Remember, its also always SAFE to put the pronoun before the first verb, just NEVER between two verbs!

  14. Reflexives with gerunds. • -ANDO and –IENDO verb forms also have two options. EX: MAQUILLARSE (YO) • Choose the form of ESTAR to match the subject. (ESTOY) • Put the “ME” in front of Estoy or on the end of maquillando. • Me estoy maquillando. Estoy maquillándome. • Did you notice the accent mark? When you add syllables to a verb, sometimes you need to mark original stress with an accent.

  15. Try a few gerund verbs: • 1.We are bathing ourselves. (BAÑARSE) • 2.They are going to bed. (ACOSTARSE) • 3.You all are dressing yourselves. (VESTIRSE) • 4.He is cutting his nails. (CORTARSE) • 5.She is brushing her teeth. (CEPILLARSE) • 6.I am showering. (DUCHARSE) • 7.They are shaving. (AFEITARSE)

  16. Check your answers: • 1.Estamos banándonos. Nos estamos bañando. • 2.Están acostándose. Se están acostando. • 3.Están vistiéndose. Se están vistiendo. • 4. Está cortándose las uñas. Se está cortando las uñas. • 5. Está cepillándose los dientes. Se está cepillando los dientes. • 6. Estoy duchándome. Me estoy duchando. • 7. Están afeitándose. Se están afeitando.

  17. Reflexives with positive orders… • You can order people to do reflexive actions. Most of the time this happens in the TÚ form. • Let’s review how to make a positive order… • Start with the Él/Ella form of the verb. • EX: BAÑAR = BAÑA VESTIR = VISTE • Then attach the reflexive pronoun to the end of the verb, and mark the original stress with an accent. • EX: BÁNATE VÍSTETE • DIVIÉRTETE Is how you would say “have fun” in Spanish. 

  18. How would you say… • Prepare yourself! • Wake up! • Go to bed! • Shower! • Get up! • Get dressed! • Wash your hands! • Brush your teeth!

  19. Check your answers. • Prepare yourself!  ¡prepárate! • Wake up!  ¡despiértate! • Go to bed!  ¡acuéstate! • Shower!  ¡dúchate! • Get up!  ¡Levántate! • Get dressed!  ¡vístete! • Wash your hands!  ¡lávate las manos! • Brush your teeth!  ¡cepíllate los dientes!

  20. Group Brainstorm… Make a list of everything you know about reflexives! Or teach a friend!
