Los Verbos- Los Verbos Reflexivos
Using Reflexive Verbs and identifying infinitives, the stem of the verbs and the root of the verbs.
Infinitive forms and finding stems for regular verbsOverviewThe infinitive is the most basic verb form in all languages. In English, the verb is always preceded by the preposition “to”
as in “to speak,” “to read,” or “to write.” In Spanish, infinitives consist of only one word and are separated into three different conjugation sets according to their endings, -AR, -ER, and -IR such as “hablar,” “leer,” and “escribir.”Verbs in the infinitive form indicate what an action is, but do not indicate anything about who is doing the action or at what point in time the action is taking place. Most verb tenses use a form of the infinitive as the stem for their conjugations. In general, for regular verbs, you simply need to remove the infinitive ending to find the stem,
and then you can the add tense’s endings.Finding the Stem from an Infinitive-AR VerbsThere are more -AR verbs than the other two categories. There are also fewer irregular -AR verbs than -ER and -IR verbs.
Some examples of common -AR infinitives and their stems are:infinitivedefinition stem

Stem changing verbs
Stem Changing VerbsIn all three conjugations of verbs (-ar, -er, and -ir) there are some verbs whose vowels change within the stem. These stem-changes occur in all persons except nosotros and vosotros. These two persons maintain the regular stem. There are six varieties of stem-changes: o->ue, e -> ie, e -> i, i -> ie, u -> ue, o -> hue. Each of these is described below with examples.1. e to ie
This is the most common stem change for Spanish verbs.Conjugation Examplequerer - to want
quiero queremos
quieresqueréis
quiere quieren
The Boot!As you can see, the stem change is only applied in 1st, 2nd, 3rd person singular and 3rd person plural, forming the shape of a boot in the conjugation chart. The "boot" is a good way to remember which persons have the stem change.Some Common e -> ie Verbsacertar to guess divertirseto have fun pensar (en) to think (about)

STEM CHANGING VERBS E:IE
The main form of the verb is called the infinitive. The infinitive consists of two parts: theending and the stem. The ending is the last two letters. There are only three different endings: -ar, -er, and -ir. The stem is everything else, except the ending.
hablar: ending = ar, stem = hablcomer: ending = er, stem = comvivir: ending = ir, stem = vivSome spanish verbs are called stem-changers because when they are conjugated, the stem changes in a predictable way. In one group of stem-changing verbs, the letter e in the stem changes to ie in all but the nosotros and vosotros forms. This particular type of stem-changing verb is found in all three verb types.cerraryo cierrotú cierrasél, ella, Ud. cierranosotros/as cerramosvosotros/as cerráisellos, ellas, Uds. cierranFor a more complete discussion of verbs that change e:ie click here.Here are some common e:ie stem-changing verbs.acertarto manage toadvertirto alert

STEM-CHANGING VERBS: O:UERemember, there are three types of infinitives: -ar, -er, -ir. Infinitives are made up of two parts: the ending and the stem. In the following examples, the stem is underlined and the ending is in bold.hablarcomervivir
With regular verbs, the stem stays the same, and the ending changes as they are conjugated.
hablo como vivo
hablas comes vives
habla come vive
hablamos comemos vivimos
habláis coméis vivís
hablan comen viven
With some verbs, the stem also changes when you conjugate them. In the present tense, there are three groups of stem-changing verbs:o:uee:iee:i
With the first group of stem-changing verbs, the letter o in the stem changes to ue in all forms except the nosotros and vosotros.contarcuentocuentascuentacontamoscontáiscuentanHere’s another o:ue stem changing verb.

REFLEXIVE VERBS: PART I
A verb is reflexive when the subject and the object are the same.There is no object hereThe subject IS the object so to speak
I wash myself.subject: Iverb: washobject: myself
Since the subject and object are the same, the verb is reflexive.
I wash the car.subject: Iverb: washobject: car
Since the subject and object are different, the verb is not reflexive.
Here’s another example of how a verb can be either reflexive or non-reflexive.
I scratch myself.subject: Iverb: scratchobject: myselfSince the subject and object are the same, the verb is reflexive.
I scratch the dog.
subject: Iverb: scratchobject: dog
Since the subject and object are different, the verb is not reflexive.
When a verb is reflexive, the infinitive ends in “se.”
lavarto wash (non-reflexive)
lavarseto wash oneself (reflexive)
rascarto scratch (non-reflexive)
rascarseto scratch oneself (reflexive)
There is one reflexive verb you have been using since you began studying Spanish.
llamarse – to call oneself
¿Cómo se llama usted?What do you call yourself?Me llamo Juan.I call myself Juan.
Note: A more “natural” translation would be “What is your name?” and “My name is Juan.”When you learned to conjugate regular verbs, you needed to learn a set of pronouns called “subject pronouns.”
lavaryo lavotú lavasél, ella, usted lavanosotros/as lavamosvosotros/as laváisellos, ellas, ustedes lavan
To learn to conjugate reflexive verbs, you need to learn a different set of pronouns called “reflexive pronouns.” These pronouns are positioned before the verb, while the ending “se” is dropped and the verb is conjugated normally.
Lavarse
Singular
yo me lavoI wash (myself)tú te lavasyou wash (yourself) (informal)él se lavahe washes (himself)
ella se lavashe washes (herself)usted se lavayou wash (yourself) (formal)
Plural
nosotros nos lavamoswe wash (ourselves)nosotras nos lavamoswe wash (ourselves) (feminine)vosotros os laváisyou-all wash (yourselves) (informal)vosotras os laváisyou-all wash (yourselves) (informal, feminine)ustedes se lavanyou-all wash (yourselves)(formal)
ellos se lavanthey wash (themselves)ellas se lavanthey wash (themselves) (feminine)
The reflexive pronouns are not subject pronouns; rather they are object pronouns.
me (myself)te (yourself)se (himself, herself, yourself)nos (ourselves)os (yourselves)se (themselves, yourselves)
The purpose of the reflexive object pronouns is to show that the action of the verb remains with the subject.
Juan se lava la cara.Juan washes his face. (reflexive)
Juan lava su carro (auto, coche) (non-reflexive)
butJuan washes his car.
Note: When referring to body parts, use the definite article, thus “la cara” not “su cara.”Note that many, many verbs can be made reflexive. All it means when a verb is reflexive is that the action remains with the subject.
wash the dog (non-reflexive)wash your face (reflexive)raise the book (non-reflexive)raise your arm (reflexive)put the baby to bed (non-reflexive)go to bed (reflexive)wake up your son (non-reflexive)wake up yourself (reflexive)…and so on
ANOTHER INTRODUCTION TO :
Reflexive Verbs and PronounsReflexive pronouns work with a reflexive verb to indicate that a person is performing the action toward or for him- or herself. These types of verbs are not very common in English, but are used frequently in Spanish. Many actions related to personal care or daily routines are reflexive, but other verbs can be reflexive as well.
Me ducho cada mañana. (I shower (myself) every morning.)
Te peinas el pelo. (You brush your hair (yourself).
Se hablaba. (He was talking to himself.)
Me veo en el espejo. (I see myself in the mirror.)
The subject is performing the action on him- or herself, making the object of the verb, the same as the subject.
Compare two sentences in which one is reflexive and one is not.
I wash myself. (Me lavo.) - myself is the object of wash
I wash the dog. (Lavo el perro.) - the dog is the object of wash
When the object of the verb is the same person as the subject, you will need to use a reflexive pronoun that matches the subject of the verb in both number (singular, plural) and person (1st, 2nd, 3rd).
Me lavo. (I wash myself.) Te lavas. (You wash yourself.)
Se lava. (He washes himself./She washes herself./It washes itself./You wash yourself.)
Nos lavamos. (We wash ourselves.) Os laváis. (You wash yourselves.) Se lavan. (They wash themselves./You wash
yourselves.)
Reflexive PronounsReflexive pronouns have almost the same forms as indirect object pronouns except se is used in place of le and les for the third person. The reflexive pronoun will always be the same person (1st, 2nd, 3rd) and number (singular, plural) as the subject of the sentence.Reflexive Pronoun Forms
Singular Plural
1st person
me (to, for, from, or off myself)
nos (to, for, from, or off ourselves)
2nd person
te (to, for, from, or off yourself)
os (to, for, from, or off yourselves)
3rd person
se (to, for, from, or off himself, herself, itself, yourself)
se (to, for, from, or off themselves, yourselves)
Reflexive Pronoun Uses:
Reflexive verbs will require the use of reflexive pronouns to indicate that the direct object of the verb is also the subject, that the subject is performing the action on him- or her-self. Notice that the reflexive pronoun has the same person as the verb ending.
lavarse (to wash one’s self) - Me lavo las manos. (I wash my hands.)
sacarse (to take something off one’s self) - Nos
sacamos los guantes. (We our gloves off (ourselves).
despertarse (to wake up) - Se despiertan a las seis cada mañana.
(They wake themselves up at six o’clock every morning.)
As mentioned before, you can also add reflexive pronouns to verbs not regularly
reflexive verbs in order to make them reflexive.You borrow from the reflexive pronouns to make a specific point
verse (to see one’s self) hablarse (to talk to one’s self) escribirse (to write to one’s self) comprarse (to buy (something) for one’s
self)
Reflexive verbs can also be used to indicate an emotional response to something. When a person becomes angry, sad, happy, etc., you can express this by using reflexive verbs.
Me enojé rápidamente. (I got angry quickly.)
Te alegras de hablar español. (It makes you happy to speak Spanish.)
Se aburre en la clase de matemáticas. (He gets bored in Math class.)
Reflexive pronouns can also be used to add emphasis to a seemingly regular situation. The
pronouns are not normally translated directly into English, but the sense of something extra is there in Spanish.
Comí el pastel. (I ate the cake.) Me comí el pastel. (I ate up the cake/I ate the
whole cake.) Estúdialo. (Study it.) Estúdiatelo. (Really study it./Study it
thoroughly.)
Reflexive Pronoun PlacementPOSITION LAWSReflexive pronouns are placed immediately before simple conjugated verbs and negative commands.
sacarse - Yo me saco los guantes. (I take off my gloves.)
afeitarse - Tú te afeitas la cara. (You shave your face.)
acostarse - Ellas se acuestan. (They go to bed.)
escribirse - No se escriba notas. (Don’t write notes to yourself.)
REMEMBER THE POSITION LAW…..OBJECT PRONOUNS COME BEFORE THE CONJUGATED VERS OR THEY FOLLOW THE INFINITIVES AND ARE ATACHED
OR THEY FOLLOW THE PRESENT PARTICIPLES AND ARE ATTACHEDOR THEY FOLLOW THE AFFIRMATIVE COMMANDS AND ARE ATACHEDYO TE CONOZCO.VOY VOY A CONOCERTE.Estoy hablándote. Yo te estoy hablando.¡Háblame! ¡Díme la verdad!
Reflexive Pronouns are attached to affirmative commands and in the case of
compound verbs (present progressive, ir+a+infinitive, etc.)
the pronoun can either be attached to the infinitive or present participle or go before the conjugated verb.
ducharhse - Estoy duchándome.
Me estoy duchando. (I am showering (myself).)
quitarse - Quítate el sombrero. (Take off your hat.)
sentarse - Voy a sentarme.
Me voy a sentar. (I am going to sit (myself) down.‘
