German has some verbs that require a reflexive pronoun to complete a sentence.
“Reflexive” simply means that the pronoun refers back to the subject of the sentence.
We do this in English, too, although German has many more reflexive verbs than English.
3
Ich wasche das Auto.
Ich wasche mir.
I am washing the car.
I am washing myself.
4
Ich ziehe mich an.
Ich schminke mich.
Ich rasiere mich.
Ich entspanne mich.
I am getting dressed.
I am putting makeup on.
I am shaving.
I am relaxing.
These verbs do not form complete sentences without an object for our purposes, the reflexive pronoun.
“Ich ziehe an” does not make any sense in German, because it’s not stated WHAT you’re putting clothes onto.
5
Many reflexive verbs in German take accusative reflexive pronouns. Quite simply, these pronouns function as direct objects in the sentence. What am I washing? Myself, so: Ich wasche mich. If the action of the verb reflects directly back to the subject, then the reflexive pronoun will be accusative.
Some reflexive verbs, though, require a dative reflexive pronoun. These pronouns function as indirect objects, because there is some other element in the sentence that is the direct object. Most often, the direct object is a body part or piece of clothing that belongs to the subject.
