Which is the correct reflexive pronoun for 'I' in Spanish?

te
me
se
In Spanish, the reflexive pronoun for the first person singular (yo) is 'me'. It is used when the subject performs an action on itself.
Which reflexive verb means 'to get up' in Spanish?
levantarse
vivir
dormir
comer
The verb 'levantarse' means 'to get up' in Spanish and is a common reflexive verb used in daily routines.
Choose the correct reflexive form: 'Tú ____ (afeitarse) cada mañana.'
se afeitas
nos afeitamos
me afeitas
te afeitas
For the pronoun 'tú', the correct reflexive form of the verb is 'te afeitas'. The reflexive pronoun must match the subject in person and number.
When using an infinitive, the reflexive pronoun is typically _______.
omitted entirely
attached to the end of the infinitive
placed after the subject
placed before the conjugated verb
In Spanish, when an infinitive follows a conjugated verb or modal, the reflexive pronoun is usually attached to the end of the infinitive. This helps to maintain clarity and proper sentence flow.
Which sentence correctly uses the reflexive pronoun?
Yo me ducho.
Ducho me.
Yo ducho me.
Me ducho yo.
The sentence 'Yo me ducho.' correctly places the reflexive pronoun 'me' immediately before the conjugated verb. This is the standard word order in Spanish reflexive constructions.
Conjugate the verb 'acostarse' for 'ellos' in the present tense.
se acuestan
acostan
se acuesto
se acuesta
For 'ellos', the correct reflexive form of 'acostarse' in the present tense is 'se acuestan'. The reflexive pronoun remains 'se', and the verb is conjugated in the third-person plural.
Complete the sentence: 'Nosotros _______ (despertarse) temprano' with the correct reflexive form.
nos despertamos
nos despertáis
se despiertan
despertamos
The correct reflexive form for 'nosotros' is 'nos despertamos', which includes the appropriate pronoun 'nos' and the correct verb conjugation in the first-person plural.
Which of the following sentences is incorrectly formed with a reflexive verb?
Tú te cepillas los dientes.
Ellos se bañan en la mañana.
Nosotros levantamos rápidamente.
Yo me levanto temprano.
The sentence 'Nosotros levantamos rápidamente.' is incorrectly formed because it omits the reflexive pronoun 'nos'. It should be 'Nosotros nos levantamos rápidamente.' to properly indicate a reflexive action.
Choose the correct reflexive form of 'divertirse' for 'vosotros' in the present tense.
nos divertimos
se divierten
te divertís
os divertís
For the subject 'vosotros', the correct reflexive pronoun is 'os' and the present tense conjugation of 'divertirse' is 'divertís'. This ensures agreement in both person and number.
Fill in the blank: 'Ella ______ (maquillarse) para la fiesta.'
se maquilla
se maquillo
maquilla
me maquilla
The correct reflexive form for 'ella' is 'se maquilla', properly placing the reflexive pronoun before the conjugated verb and indicating that the action is performed on herself.
Complete the sentence with the correct reflexive pronoun: '________ levantamos tarde cuando hay vacaciones' for 'nosotros'.
me
os
nos
se
The reflexive pronoun for 'nosotros' is 'nos'. Using 'nos' correctly indicates that the subject performs the action on itself.
Which option demonstrates proper reflexive pronoun placement with a conjugated reflexive verb?
Se baña él
Él se baña
Baña se él
Él baña se
In the sentence 'Él se baña', the reflexive pronoun 'se' is correctly placed immediately before the conjugated verb. This order is standard in Spanish for reflexive constructions.
Identify the sentence that correctly uses reflexive verbs in both parts: 'Yo ______ (sentarse) y ______ (acostarse)'.
se sienta y se acuesta
me siento y me acuesto
me siento y se acuesto
se sienta y me acuesto
For the first person singular, the correct reflexive pronoun is 'me'. 'Me siento y me acuesto' provides a consistent and correct reflexive construction for both actions.
Translate 'They get dressed quickly' into Spanish using a reflexive verb.
Ellos se visten rápidamente
Ellos se visten rápido
Ellos visten rápidamente
Ellos se visten
The correct translation is 'Ellos se visten rápidamente', which uses the reflexive verb 'vestirse' properly conjugated for 'ellos' along with the adverb 'rápidamente' to describe the action.
Which sentence incorrectly places the reflexive pronoun in a reciprocal action?
Los amigos ayudan se mutuamente.
Los amigos se apoyan mutuamente.
Los amigos se respetan.
Los amigos se ayudan mutuamente.
The sentence 'Los amigos ayudan se mutuamente.' places the reflexive pronoun incorrectly after the verb. The correct structure should have the pronoun before the verb, as in 'Los amigos se ayudan mutuamente.'
In a sentence with a modal verb, such as 'puedo', where should the reflexive pronoun be placed?
Attached to the end of the infinitive
At the beginning of the sentence
After the subject
Before the modal verb
When using modal verbs in Spanish, the reflexive pronoun is attached to the end of the infinitive (e.g., 'puedo lavarme') to maintain clear sentence structure.
Select the correct transformation of the sentence 'María maquilla el rostro' into a reflexive construction.
Se maquilla María el rostro
María maquilla se el rostro
María maquilla el se rostro
María se maquilla el rostro
To form a reflexive sentence, the reflexive pronoun 'se' is placed before the conjugated verb. 'María se maquilla el rostro' correctly indicates that María is performing the action on herself.
When using a negative command with a reflexive verb, how is the reflexive pronoun positioned?
After the subject
Before the verb
Attached to the end of the verb
Omitted entirely
In negative commands, the reflexive pronoun is placed before the conjugated verb. This positioning differs from affirmative commands where the pronoun may be attached to the verb.
Determine the correct sentence in the past tense using a reflexive verb: 'Ella _____ (levantarse) a las siete ayer'.
levantó
se levantaba
se levanta
se levantó
The correct preterite form for 'ella' is 'se levantó' when using the reflexive verb 'levantarse', indicating that the action was completed in the past.
Analyze the sentence: 'Nos hemos estado duchándonos'. Which of the following best explains the structure?
It is a simple present form with a reflexive pronoun
It is a future perfect with an attached pronoun
It shows an incorrect combination of reflexive and progressive aspects
It combines a compound tense with a progressive form and a reflexive pronoun attached to the gerund
The sentence 'Nos hemos estado duchándonos' uses a compound tense (present perfect) combined with the progressive aspect. The reflexive pronoun is correctly attached to the gerund, indicating an ongoing action that started in the past.

Spanish Reflexive Verbs Practice Cheat Sheet

  1. Understand reflexive verbs - Reflexive verbs show that the subject is doing the action to itself, like "me lavo" meaning "I wash myself." Getting this concept down helps you describe personal care and daily routines naturally in Spanish. You'll soon spot reflexive patterns everywhere!
  2. Learn reflexive pronouns - Spanish reflexive pronouns (me, te, se, nos, os, se) tell us who is performing and receiving the action. Practice matching pronouns to subjects to avoid confusion - and you'll sound like a pro in no time!
  3. Recognize common reflexive verbs - Many everyday verbs like "despertarse" (to wake up), "vestirse" (to get dressed) or "acostarse" (to go to bed) are reflexive. Knowing these popular verbs gives you instant superpowers to talk about daily life in Spanish!
  4. Practice conjugating with pronouns - Place the appropriate reflexive pronoun before the conjugated verb - yo me levanto, tú te levantas, él se levanta. Repeat with different subjects, and watch your confidence skyrocket!
  5. Spot meaning changes in verbs - Some verbs shift meaning when reflexive - e.g., "dormir" means "to sleep," but "dormirse" means "to fall asleep." Tuning into these nuances makes your Spanish more precise and vibrant!
  6. Attach pronouns to infinitives and gerunds - You can stick reflexive pronouns onto infinitives and -ing forms: "voy a ducharme" (I'm going to shower) or "estoy vistiéndome" (I'm getting dressed). It's a fun twist for more fluent speech.
  7. Use reflexive verbs for daily routines - Reflexive verbs shine when you describe morning rituals, grooming, and bedtime habits. Talking through your own routine in Spanish is a great way to lock in these verbs!
  8. Memorize exclusively reflexive verbs - A handful of Spanish verbs - like "quejarse" (to complain) and "arrepentirse" (to regret) - are always reflexive. Mastering these special cases will save you from common mistakes!
  9. Apply pronouns in negative commands - In negative commands, reflexive pronouns go before the verb: "No te levantes" (Don't get up). Practice these forms, and you'll handle commands like a native speaker!
  10. Practice reflexive verbs in all tenses - Try reflexive forms in present, past, and beyond - "me levanté" (I got up), "me levantaré" (I will get up). Experimenting across tenses builds depth and versatility in your Spanish!
