Slide 7 - Tekstslide

When do you use reflexive pronouns?
1. We use a reflexive pronoun as a direct object (= lijdend        voorwerp) when the direct object is the same as
 the subject (= onderwerp) of the sentence:


 I fell over and hurt myself.
 Be careful with that knife. You might cut yourself.

amuse
blame
cut
dry 
enjoy
help




hurt
introduce
kill

Slide 9 - Tekstslide

BUT:
We do NOT use a reflexive pronoun after verbs which describe things people usually do for themselves:


He washed in cold water. (Compare in Dutch: zich wassen)
He always shaved before going out in the evening. (Compare in Dutch: zich scheren)
