UNIT 5 REFLEXIVE PRONOUNS
1. Reflexive pronouns end in ~self or ~selves, they may have singular and plural forms.
Person |
Singular |
Plural |
1st |
myself |
ourselves |
2nd |
yourself |
yourselves |
3rd
|
himself herself itself |
themselves |
|
oneself |
|
2. Reflexive pronouns are used when the subject and the object in a sentence refer to the same person: I saw myself in the mirror. The men formed themselves in a line.
Verbs that describe actions that people do to themselves do not take reflexive pronouns in English:I usually shave before breakfast. She washed very quickly and rushed downstairs.
However, reflexives can be used if it is necessary to make it clear who does the action: The barber shaves all the people in the town who don’t shave themselves. She’s old enough now to dress herself.
Reflexive pronouns can be used as indirect objects: They were making fools of themselves. Tell me about yourself.
By + a reflexive pronoun = alone: Greg lives by himself.
By + a reflexive pronoun = without any help from other people: She was certain she could manage by herself.
Reflexive pronouns can be used for emphasis: I myself have never read this book. The town itself was so small that it didn’t have a bank.
3. Verbs and phrases commonly followed by a reflexive pronoun. | ||
believe in yourself be proud of yourself blame yourself cut yourself enjoy yourself feel sorry for yourself
|
help yourself hurt yourself give yourself smth introduce yourself kill yourself trouble yourself
|
take care of yourself talk to yourself teach yourself tell yourself work for yourself wish yourself (luck) |
