Summary: Reflexive verbs are a little weird in Spanish. Not hard. Just weird.<br> Do you even know what reflexive verbs are?<br> Yeah, neither did I. We just don’t use them that much in English.<br> And that’s the problem.<br> Most Spanish courses and books don’t specifically compare what happens in Spanish to what happens in English.<br> But that’s how we learn–CONTEXT! (how does this fit with everything I already know?)<br> So the goal of this video is simple: show you what reflexive verbs are, and how and when to use them in both English and Spanish.<br> But along the way, you’ll also see how they compare to direct and indirect object pronouns (the last two videos).<br> There are lots of similarities–and lots of differences too (that’s part of the confusion).<br> BONUS: The word “se” in Spanish is very confusing. Because it has many different uses and meanings. This video touches on one of them.<br> “Ver” is the verb. “Verse” is the REFLEXIVE verb (same thing, just with “se” on the end).<br> When you’re done, not only will you finally understand reflexive verbs and how to use them.<br> But you’ll be one step closer to understanding that crazy word “se” also!<br> Watch the video. Maybe twice. You’ll get it. I swear.<br> And I’m here for questions, of course.<br> Hasta luego!<br> Jordan<br> All resources for this episode can be found here: https://spanishdude.com/quickies/reflexive-verbs/?podcast<br>
