Los pronombres reflexivos (reflexive pronouns) son utilizados cuando el objeto es el mismo que el sujeto del verbo.
Personal pronoun | Reflexive pronoun |
---|---|
I | myself |
you | yourself |
he | himself |
she | herself |
it | itself |
we | ourselves |
you (plural) | yourselves |
they | themselves |
Existen algunos verbos que por su significado tienden a referirse al mismo sujeto, los más comunes son:
amuse | blame |
---|---|
cut | dry |
enjoy | help |
hurt | introduce |
kill | prepare |
satisfy | teach |

❌ Be careful with that knife, you might hurt you.
✅ Be careful with that knife, you might hurt yourself.
❌ Would they like to pour them a drink?
✅ Would they like to pour themselves a drink?
No se utilizan los pronombres reflexivos después de verbos que describan acciones que la gente usualmente realiza para sí mismos. Por ejemplo, vestirse, es una acción que en la mayoría de los casos se lo puede hacer uno mismo.
Sin embargo, se puede utilizar los pronombres reflexivos, si se quiere realizar un énfasis sobre la acción.
Los pronombres recíprocos (reciprocal pronouns) se utilizan para expresar una acción mutua entre dos o más personas u cosas. Los pronombres recíprocos son: each other y one another. Ambos pronombres se emplean indistintamente.
Sentence 1: Mark helped John.
Sentence 2: John helped Mark.
Complete sentence: Mark and John helped each other.
No confundir con los pronombres reflexivos, la oración tiene un significado diferente dependiendo del tipo de pronombre que se utilice.
We sent one another a gift. (se dieron un regalo mutuamente)
We sent ourselves a gift. (cada uno se dió un regalo a sí mismo)
Ana and Cesar talk to each other regularly. (mutuamente)
Ana and Cesar talk to themselves regularly. (a sí mismos)
