D) Reflexive Verbs (p.7)–
- Reflexive verbs are used to talk about what people do for or to themselves
- The action reflects back on the person doing it (I brush my hair. I get myself up.)
-Many of these verbs have to do with daily routine activities.
- Reflexive verbs ALWAYS use a REFLEXIVE PRONOUN
List the reflexive pronouns: Conjugate this verb. Include the pronouns!
Arreglarse - __to get ready_____
|Me arreglo |Nos arreglamos |
|Te arreglas |Os arregláis |
|Se arregla |Se arreglan |
|Me |Nos |
|Te |Os |
|Se |se |
- If you have one conjugated verb in a sentence, the pronoun comes BEFORE the verb.
Ex: Me levanto a las seis.
- If you have 2 verbs (ex: conjugated + infinitive), you have 2 OPTIONS for pronoun placement (either before the conjugated verb or attached to the infinitive.
Ex: Me voy a levanter a las seis. OR Voy a levantarme a las seis.
E) Verbs like Gustar (p.11)– Gustar and its friends are very different from other verbs!
- The verb still aggress with the subject, but the subject comes AFTER the verb!
I like the shoes. > Shoes would be the subject, so… Me gustan los zapatos. NOT Me gusto!!
- Gustar verbs are ALWAYS used with an INDIRECT OBJECT PRONOUN
- Use the he/she/it form of the verb if the subject is an infinitive. (We like to dance) Nos gusta bailar.
Indirect Object Pronouns: Verbs like gustar: / English meanings
|Me |nos |
|Te |Os |
|Le |les |

5. It doesn’t matter to me.__No me importa.______
F) Possessive Adjectives:
- Possessive adjectives agree in NUMBER and GENDER with the nouns they modify (the nouns that are RIGHT BESIDE THEM – to the right) *It is easy to get confused sometimes and try to make them agree with the subject!
Possessive adjectives: Write in Spanish:
|My – mi(s) |Our – nuestro,a(s) |
|Your – tu(s) |Your (pl.) vuestro,a(s) |
|His/her –su(s) |Their/Your(pl) su(s) |
