Reflexive verbs with Tú Commands • Using reflexives with commands is similar to using commands with object pronouns. The placement of the pronoun is the same. • With an affirmative command, you attach the pronoun to the end of the command and add an accent when necessary. • For example: Eat it (the sandwhich). Cómelo. Wash yourself. Lávate. • With a negative command, the pronoun goes between the no and the command. • For example: Don’t eat it. No lo comas. Don’t wash yourself. No te laves.
