Key concepts

3 concepts

  1. 1

    Reflexive verbs indicate that the action is being performed on the subject itself.

  2. 2

    In French, reflexive verbs are identified by the reflexive pronoun 'se' before the infinitive, such as 'se laver' which means to wash oneself.

  3. 3

    When conjugating reflexive verbs, the reflexive pronoun changes based on the subject (e.g., je me lave, tu te laves, il/elle/on se lave, nous nous lavons, vous vous lavez, ils/elles se lavent).
