​To show that an action is reflexive in Spanish, the infinitive verbs end in SE.

Examples:

  • ​ducharse - to shower

  • ​vestirse - to get dressed

  • ​peinarse el pelo - to comb your hair

  • ​secarse el pelo - to dry your hair

How to use reflexive verbs in Spanish​

13

​The SE must CHANGE to match the person

​With the example: ducharse (to shower)

  • SE ME if I am doing the action to myself.

    • ​Ex. I need to shower ↠ Necesito ducharme.

  • ​SE → TE if you are doing the action to yourself.

    • ​Ex. You need to shower ↠ Necesitas ducharte.

  • ​SE → SE if he/she/it/Ud. is doing the action to themself.

    • ​Ex. He needs to shower ↠ Necesita ducharse.

  • ​SE → NOS if we are doing the action to ourselves.

    • ​Ex. We need to shower ↠ Necesitamos ducharnos.

  • SE → SE if if ell@s/Uds. are doing the action to themselves.

    • ​Ex. They need to shower ↠ Necesitan ducharse.
