2. Reflexive Pronouns


We use the Reflexive Pronoun when the action of the doer goes back to himself so that the Subject of the sentence is the same person as the object.
EXAMPLE: He has hurt himself.

Pronouns like 'himself' are called Reflexive Pronouns. They always end in '-self or -selves'.
Reflexive Pronouns
Singular
Plural
First Person
I : Myself
We : Ourselves
Second Person
You : Yourself
You : Yourself
Third Person
He : Himself
She : Herself

They : Themselves

The words in bold type can be used to make the action of a verb refer back to the subject. They are called reflexive pronouns.
