Spanish Reflexive Verbs v1.0

[@troutrl5669]

my spanish teacher just told us "these are reflexive verbs" and gave us a worksheet without telling us how to use them so this was very helpful thanks!

[@CyberProfe]

That's great! I'm glad it helped.

[@rachelgassner5467]

This is the best reflexive verb explanation I've ever seen. It's simple, effective, and covers all the important points. GRACIAS

[@bigwordnumero1]

¡Por Fin! I listened to the explanation, did the exercises, got 6 out of 6. Never understood Spanish reflexive verbs before. so thank you!

Thank you for saying that! Glad it helped.

[@nicolemitchell7105]

This is a great video! I really like the trick I learned from you about using @ instead of writing both "vosotros" and "vosotras" out in full. One note - On the slide where you have the stem-changing verbs listed, you have misspelled the verb "despertarse," putting an "a" after the "p." It should be an "e," as it is an e-->ie stem-changing verb. Gracias.

'Muchos gracias! Eso ayuda mucho con me intento aprender Espanol!' I think! Reflexive verbs are very confusing to me and doesn't come naturally. This is very helpful in clarifying the principles. I really like the structure to your video too. Thanks!

[@FireMaster-or6lo]

tip: when you are saying "that helps (me) a lot with x" you don't need the me, as in English

[@thefictionxwelive]

Thank you so much!!! I was struggling with this all week and it finally clicked that I add the reflexive pronoun AND conjugate the ar/er/ir verb (after removing se). Thank you thank you thank you. ❤

I love your video and it explains this topic very well. I did notice that there is a spelling error in the verb to wake up, it should be despertarse not despartarse.

Thank you! Sadly, KZbin makes it hard to fix things like that. I'd have to take down the whole video and repost with a new link.

I love this! however the verb Despertar was misspelled correct spelling is DESPERTARSE at 3:11 mark . You are the best to explain these though

Great video!! I have a question. I was working with reflexive verbs an I was getting the hang of it. Then I came across this sentence, "Después de levantarme, me afeito la cara". Why wouldn't this sentence be "despues de me levanto" ?

[@JS-wg4px]

correction at 3:12 The spelling should be "despertarse"

[@Capin_KO]

you explained this better than my spanish teacher who is spanish

[@islamictwins8514]

Question, why when we say me gusta or te gusta why doesn’t the gusta change?

[@CyberProfe]

Because of how we translate it. =) As an English speaker, I'll translate "me gusta" as "I like it" but it really means "me (to me) gusta (this is pleasing)." So me gusta means "to me it is pleasing", te gusta means "to you it is pleasing", nos gusta means "to us it is pleasing" and le gusta means "to him or to her it is pleasing." That's why it doesn't change!

What grade r y’all learning this in

[@billbortkevich2300]

When can we use these verbs in infinitive form ? I'd love to get some examples. I'm a bit puzzled even why we need infinitive form - most of those are just regular verbs that are used in a peculiar reflexive way. Can any verb be reflexive under right cirunstances? Please clarify.

[@gerlautamr.656]

Examples: Es difícil levantarse a las 7 de la mañana. Las montañas pueden verse desde lejos. Mi madre va a comerse las frutas. These are just a few examples where reflexive verbs are used in their infinitive form.

Great video but there are a couple of mistakes. Despertarse is spelled wrong on the screen.

[@redstripe5794]

Ty so much for the info

[@chriswesley594]

I've struggled with this for three years. Most teachers do what you do. But surelt "me llamo" is just an ordinary verb, following the ordinary order of words in Spanish. "Te llamo" is "I call you, but it's not reflexive. The reflexivity is therefor in the direct object pronoun, not in the verb. It's not a "a reflexive verb", it's a "sentence reflecting an action the the doer of the action". Right?

[@CyberProfe]

Hola! The verb 'llamar' is different from the verb 'llamarse'. One is reflexive but the other isn't. Me llamo uses the verb 'llamarse' to mean "I call myself," like: Me llamo Sara. But, in your example, te llamo, it uses the verb 'llamar' and just means I call you. You could say, "Ya te llamo," and it means "I'll call you back."

[@chriswesley594]

Thanks for your reply. In English, we can say "I call myself Chris" but we can also say "I call you Cyber". I agree that one usage of the verb is reflexive and the other is not, but - for me - it's the same verb. It means fundamentally the same thing, but the convention around the usage - the context - modifies it slightly. I suppose whether you say those two usages of CALL are using two diferent verbs, or the same verb in two contexts which modify the verb's meaning slightly - is arbitrary, but I've struggled with this for years. Now I can use reflexive verbs correctly, and I've learned many of those special contextual (AKA reflexive) meanings, but for me - reflexive verbs are just the same old regular verbs used in special contexts. Thanks again for your time.

[@jbls1855]

This is really good, but you spelled "despertarse" wrong...

[@WBRI_Brianless]

I've never considered the pronoun clarification, but it makes sense when you consider it conversationally

[@kimberlymazza213]

Despertarse no despartarse, would be nice to make that correction.

[@shaniahwebb4896]

I got them right

[@CP-ic4ik]

I noticed on the last examples, you didn’t exactly translate word for word. For example “we comb our hair= nos peinamos el pelo”. shouldn’t it be “nos peinamos nuestro pelo”. Is the fact that you are using a reflexive verb remove the need for possessive pronouns?

[@CyberProfe]

In Spanish, when it comes to body parts, we often use 'el' or 'la' where in English we would say 'your.' Nos peinamos el pelo does translate to 'We comb our hair'! Hope that helps!
