   Bella Welcome to this lesson on Reflexive Pronouns. Today
2. 0:03
   Bella we explore words like myself and yourself that show the subject
3. 0:07
   Bella does an action to itself. You will learn to choose reflexive
4. 0:11
   Bella pronouns accurately and avoid adding them to simple everyday
5. 0:15
   Bella verbs.
6. 0:16
   Bella Elena hurried along the platform and stopped by the carriage
7. 0:20
   Bella glass. She looked up and noticed her reflection clearly. She
8. 0:24
   Bella smiled and said, I saw myself in the window.
9. 0:28
   Bella We use a reflexive pronoun when the subject does an action
10. 0:32
    Bella to itself. In our story, Elena looked and
11. 0:36
    Bella Elena was seen. The action returns directly to the subject
12. 0:39
    Bella of the sentence.
13. 0:41
    Bella Consider this sentence from the station cafe. The traveler
14. 0:45
    Bella bought himself a warm tea. Because the subject is a single
15. 0:49
    Bella male, we match him with the form himself.
16. 0:52
    Bella Let us test your skill now. Which pronoun completes:
17. 0:56
    Bella He bought ___ a warm drink? Look at the subject
18. 1:00
    Bella pronoun he and choose the matching form.
19. 1:08
    Bella Well done. We use himself because the subject of
20. 1:12
    Bella the sentence is he. When a male subject acts on himself,
21. 1:16
    Bella the matching reflexive form is himself.
22. 1:20
    Bella Many languages use reflexives for daily routines, but
23. 1:23
    Bella English prefers simple verbs. We say I
24. 1:27
    Bella wash, I shave, or I dress. Adding reflexive
25. 1:31
    Bella words here sounds unusual in everyday speech.
26. 1:34
    Bella Compare these two actions. If David poured tea for
27. 1:38
    Bella Sarah, David helped her. But if David took a cup on his own,
28. 1:42
    Bella David helped himself. Standard pronouns refer to someone
29. 1:46
    Bella else.
30. 1:47
    Bella Notice how singular reflexive pronouns end in self,
31. 1:51
    Bella while plural forms end in selves. Keeping
32. 1:55
    Bella this sound distinction in mind makes choosing the right spelling
33. 1:58
    Bella and ending natural.
34. 2:00
    Bella Here is the plural pattern in station life. New commuters
35. 2:04
    Bella joined the lounge group. They introduced themselves politely
36. 2:07
    Bella before the train arrived. Notice the ending selves matching
37. 2:11
    Bella the plural subject they.
38. 2:14
    Bella When you say these words, place the stress clearly on the
39. 2:17
    Bella ending. Emphasise the self in myself, and make
40. 2:21
    Bella the selves in ourselves sound stronger than the first part.
41. 2:26
    Bella Think about our rule for routine verbs. Which sentence sounds
42. 2:30
    Bella more natural for everyday morning routines? Choose the option
43. 2:33
    Bella that everyday English speakers prefer.
44. 2:41
    Bella That is right. English prefers the simple verb wash
45. 2:45
    Bella for everyday morning routines. While adding myself is
46. 2:49
    Bella possible, keeping the verb simple sounds much more natural.
47. 2:53
    Bella As you listen to the upcoming dialogues, ask who is performing
48. 2:57
    Bella the action. If that person does the action to someone else,
49. 3:01
    Bella listen for an ordinary object pronoun instead.
