As the name suggests, <strong>these are verbs whose action turns back on the subject<\/strong>, much like our reflection in a mirror. You can think of a reflexive verb as an action that someone does to <em>themselves<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>There are reflexive actions in English, too, such as &#8220;washing oneself&#8221; or &#8220;enjoying oneself&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Italian reflexive verbs use <strong>reflexive pronouns to indicate that the subject is the recipient of the action<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>How do they work, and how should we use them in sentences? Find out in this article!<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"post-7103-_33ggjm2rsk2g\"><\/a><strong>How to identify Italian reflexive verbs<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>First things first, it&#8217;s important to be able to distinguish between normal and reflexive verbs in Italian.<\/p>\n<p>This is very easy to do: <strong>Italian reflexive verbs end in -RSI<\/strong> (this is the form you will find in dictionaries). For example:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>alzarsi<br \/>\n<\/strong> to get up<\/li>\n<li><strong>rompersi<br \/>\n<\/strong> to break<\/li>\n<li><strong>pulirsi<br \/>\n<\/strong> to clean oneself<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The non-reflexive forms of these verbs are <strong>alzare<\/strong>, <strong>rompere<\/strong> and <strong>pulire<\/strong>. To form the reflexive verb from a non-reflexive verb, simply remove the final -e and add -si. This is why reflexive verbs in Italian end in -rsi.<\/p>\n<p>Notice that <strong>many verbs that are reflexive in Italian are not necessarily so in English<\/strong>. In English, the verb &#8220;to break&#8221; is both transitive (&#8220;The kid breaks the vase&#8221;) and intransitive (&#8220;The vase breaks&#8221;). In Italian, these are two different verbs: <strong>rompere<\/strong> and <strong>rompersi<\/strong>. You would use <em>rompere<\/em> in the first example and <strong>rompersi<\/strong> in the second. Like this:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Il bambino <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">rompe<\/span> il vaso.<br \/>\n<\/strong> The kid breaks the vase.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Il vaso <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">si rompe<\/span>.<br \/>\n<\/strong> The vase breaks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Where does that <em>si<\/em> come from? Let&#8217;s find out in the next section!<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"post-7103-_4ub59az4lqc6\"><\/a><strong>How to conjugate Italian reflexive verbs<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Italian reflexive verbs are very easy to conjugate. The verb is conjugated as a regular non-reflexive verb, like &#8220;rompe&#8221; above. All you need to do is use the <strong>correct reflexive pronoun<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Do you remember how to conjugate &#8220;to wash&#8221;, <em>lavare<\/em>? Let me refresh your memory of the present tense conjugation, and then we can look at how to use the reflexive form, <strong>lavarsi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>io<\/td>\n<td><strong>lavo<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>tu<\/td>\n<td><strong>lavi<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>lui, lei<\/td>\n<td><strong>lava<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>noi<\/td>\n<td><strong>laviamo<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>voi<\/td>\n<td><strong>lavate<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>loro<\/td>\n<td><strong>lavano<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>For example:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Lavo le scale.<br \/>\n<\/strong> I wash the stairs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>I ragazzi lavano la macchina.<br \/>\n<\/strong> The boys wash the car.<\/li>\n<li><strong>La pioggia lava i vetri del salotto.<br \/>\n<\/strong> The rain washes the windows in the living room.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You should now have enough information to form the reflexive form of <em>lavare<\/em>. Remember to remove the final -e and add -si.<\/p>\n<p>And the answer is&#8230; <strong>lavarsi<\/strong>, of course! With an -rsi ending.<\/p>\n<p>To form the present simple of <em>lavarsi<\/em>, conjugate the regular verb <em>lavare<\/em> as you normally would, then add <strong>the correct reflexive pronoun, as shown in the following table<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>io<\/td>\n<td><strong>mi <\/strong>lavo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>tu<\/td>\n<td><strong>ti <\/strong>lavi<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>lui, lei<\/td>\n<td><strong>si <\/strong>lava<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>noi<\/td>\n<td><strong>ci <\/strong>laviamo<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>voi<\/td>\n<td><strong>vi <\/strong>lavate<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>loro<\/td>\n<td><strong>si <\/strong>lavano<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Mi lavo<\/strong> translates to <em>I wash myself<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>In Italian, <strong>mi, ti, si, ci, vi<\/strong> are reflexive pronouns that have the same function as the English pronouns <strong><em>myself, yourself, himself\/herself\/itself\/themselves, ourselves, yourselves<\/em><\/strong>. With enough practice, you will learn to recognize when an Italian verb requires a reflexive form.<\/p>\n<p>Before we look at how negation works, let&#8217;s see some more examples of Italian reflexive verbs in the present tense.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>La mamma si veste.<br \/>\n<\/strong> Mom gets dressed. (<em>vestire &#8211; vestirsi<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mi alzo alle 8.<br \/>\n<\/strong> I get up at 8. (<em>alzare &#8211; alzarsi<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><strong>I bambini si divertono molto.<br \/>\n<\/strong> The children are having a lot of fun. (<em>divertire &#8211; divertirsi<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Luca si dimentica di fare i compiti.<br \/>\n<\/strong> Luca forgets to do his homework. (<em>dimenticare &#8211; dimenticarsi<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vi fermate a casa nostra per cena?<br \/>\n<\/strong> Are you staying for dinner at our house? (<em>fermare &#8211; fermarsi<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ti sbagli, Luca non vive qui.<br \/>\n<\/strong> You&#8217;re wrong, Luca doesn&#8217;t live here. (<em>sbagliare &#8211; sbagliarsi<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Come ti chiami?<br \/>\n<\/strong> What is your name? (<em>chiamare &#8211; chiamarsi<\/em>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>One of the first reflexive verbs you learn when studying Italian as a beginner is actually <strong>chiamarsi<\/strong>, meaning &#8220;to call oneself&#8221;, from <strong>chiamare<\/strong>, meaning &#8220;to call&#8221;. You will certainly remember that the usual reply to <strong>Come ti chiami?<\/strong> is <strong>Mi chiamo&#8230;<\/strong>, which literally means &#8220;I call myself&#8230;&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>See? You&#8217;re well on your way to mastering Italian reflexive verbs without breaking a sweat! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<h3><a id=\"post-7103-_ig0v2vnrfojf\"><\/a><strong>How to negate an Italian reflexive verb<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>To negate a reflexive verb, simply add &#8220;non&#8221;<\/strong> before the reflexive pronoun. Examples:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>La mamma <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">non si veste<\/span>.<br \/>\n<\/strong> Mom doesn&#8217;t get dressed.<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Non mi<\/span> alzo mai alle 8.<br \/>\n<\/strong> I never get up at 8.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Luca <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">non si<\/span> dimentica di fare i compiti.<br \/>\n<\/strong> Luca doesn&#8217;t forget to do his homework.<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Non ti<\/span> sbagli.<br \/>\n<\/strong> You&#8217;re not wrong.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><a id=\"post-7103-_twrx66katyp6\"><\/a><strong>Conjugating Italian reflexive verbs in other tenses<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Suppose we want to conjugate a reflexive verb in the <em>passato prossimo<\/em> tense. Just like in English, this tense uses <strong>helper verbs<\/strong>, followed by the <strong>past participle<\/strong> of the main verb.<\/p>\n<p>Conjugating reflexive verbs is actually easier because there is only one possible auxiliary verb: <strong>essere<\/strong>! For example:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>La mamma<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"> si \u00e8<\/span> vestita con il suo abito migliore.<br \/>\n<\/strong> Mom put on her best dress.<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Mi sono<\/span> alzato a mezzogiorno.<br \/>\n<\/strong> I got up at noon.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Luca <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">si \u00e8<\/span> dimenticato di fare i compiti.<br \/>\n<\/strong> Luca forgot to do his homework.<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Vi siete<\/span> fermati a prendere il latte?<br \/>\n<\/strong> Did you stop to get milk?<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mio fratello <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">si \u00e8<\/span> arrabbiato tantissimo.<br \/>\n<\/strong> My brother got really angry.

(<em>perdere &#8211; perdersi<\/em>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Examples with other tenses:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Non <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">mi ero<\/span> reso conto della pioggia.<br \/>\n<\/strong> I hadn&#8217;t noticed the rain. (<em>rendere &#8211; rendersi<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Quanti giorni <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">ti fermerai<\/span> in Italia?<br \/>\n<\/strong> How many days will you be staying in Italy?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><a id=\"post-7103-_bxyhb2oukrjq\"><\/a><strong>Where should the Italian reflexive pronouns be placed?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><a id=\"post-7103-_xn8b0sc0b6ya\"><\/a><strong>With modal verbs<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Until now, all of our examples have featured regular verbs. In these examples, the reflexive pronoun comes before the verb. But what about when we have a <strong>modal verb<\/strong> in Italian followed by another verb in the infinitive mood?<\/p>\n<p>First, let&#8217;s review the Italian modal verbs.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>volere<\/strong> (to want)<\/li>\n<li><strong>potere<\/strong> (can)<\/li>\n<li><strong>dovere<\/strong> (must, to have to)<\/li>\n<li><strong>sapere<\/strong> (to know)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now, where would you put the reflexive pronoun in the sentence &#8220;I have to get up at 7&#8221;?<\/p>\n<p>We will use <em>dovere<\/em> as a modal verb and <em>alzarsi<\/em> as a reflexive verb. There are two options. Read carefully:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Mi devo<\/span> alzare alle 7.<br \/>\n<\/strong> I have to get up at 7.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Devo alzar<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">mi<\/span> alle 7.<br \/>\n<\/strong> I have to get up at 7.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Either follow the usual order for regular verbs, putting the reflexive pronoun first, <em>or<\/em> remove the final -e from the infinitive verb and <em>add<\/em> the pronoun at the end of it.<\/p>\n<p>Let me give you a few more examples to help you remember this rule.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Mi posso<\/span> sedere qui? \/ Posso sedermi qui?<br \/>\n<\/strong> Can I sit here? (<em>sedere &#8211; sedersi<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Ci dobbiamo<\/span> ricordare di chiamare Paolo. \/ Dobbiamo ricorda<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">rci<\/span> di chiamare Paolo.<br \/>\n<\/strong> We must remember to call Paolo.

Examples include <strong>iniziare a<\/strong> (to start doing) and <strong>decidere di<\/strong> (to decide to). Examples:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Marco <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">inizia a<\/span> mangiare.<br \/>\n<\/strong> Marco starts eating.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Noi <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">decidiamo di<\/span> pulire.<br \/>\n<\/strong> We decide to clean up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>How would you say &#8220;Marco starts getting dressed&#8221; or &#8220;We decide to get up&#8221;? How do you use reflexive verbs in these situations?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Marco<\/span> inizia a vestir<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">si<\/span>.<br \/>\n<\/strong> Marco starts getting dressed.<\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Noi<\/span> decidiamo di alzar<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">ci<\/span>.<br \/>\n<\/strong> We decide to get up.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Can you see what happened? First, we conjugate the main verb as normal (<em>inizia, decidiamo<\/em>). The correct reflexive pronoun is then <strong>attached to the end of the infinitive verb <\/strong>(<em>vestire<\/em> + <em>si<\/em> becomes <em>vestirsi<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>Other examples:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Spero di sbagliar<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">mi<\/span>.<br \/>\n<\/strong> I hope I&#8217;m wrong.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Elena e Marta finiscono di asciugar<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">si<\/span> i capelli.<br \/>\n<\/strong> Elena and Marta finish drying their hair.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Non siamo riusciti a fermar<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">ci<\/span> in tempo.<br \/>\n<\/strong> We couldn&#8217;t stop in time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Unlike with modal verbs, in this case, the pronoun must be attached to the infinitive.<\/p>\n<h2><a id=\"post-7103-_j1nknfhvneql\"><\/a><strong>Giving orders with the Italian reflexive verbs<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>When you say &#8220;Stop!&#8221; or &#8220;Eat up!&#8221;, you&#8217;re using the <strong>imperative mood<\/strong>. Italian has this verb form too, even for reflexive verbs.<\/p>\n<p>Conjugating a reflexive verb in the Italian imperative mood is simple: just match the reflexive pronoun to the conjugation of the regular verb. Let&#8217;s start with the verb <em>alzare<\/em>.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>io<\/td>\n<td>&#8212;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>tu<\/td>\n<td><strong>alza<\/strong> la mano!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>lui, lei<\/td>\n<td><strong>alzi<\/strong> la mano!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>noi<\/td>\n<td><strong>alziamo<\/strong> la mano!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>voi<\/td>\n<td><strong>alzate<\/strong> la mano!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>loro<\/td>\n<td><strong>alzino<\/strong> la mano!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>To form the reflexive verb <em>alzarsi<\/em>, take the bold verbs and add the reflexive pronouns as shown below:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>io<\/td>\n<td><strong>&#8212;<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>tu<\/td>\n<td>alza<strong>ti<\/strong>!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>lui, lei<\/td>\n<td><strong>si<\/strong> alzi!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>noi<\/td>\n<td>alziamo<strong>ci<\/strong>!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>voi<\/td>\n<td>alzate<strong>vi<\/strong>!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>loro<\/td>\n<td><strong>si<\/strong> alzino!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The formal reflexive pronoun <strong>si<\/strong> always appears as a separate word that precedes the verb (third person singular and plural), whereas all the other reflexive pronouns are simply attached to the verb. Examples:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Siedi<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">ti<\/span> su quella sedia!<br \/>\n<\/strong> Sit down on that chair!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fermate<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">vi<\/span>, \u00e8 un ordine!<br \/>\n<\/strong> Stop, that&#8217;s an order!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Muoviamo<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">ci<\/span>, o perderemo il treno!<br \/>\n<\/strong> Let&#8217;s hurry, or we&#8217;ll miss the train!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Alza<span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">ti<\/span>, Matteo! Sei in ritardo!<br \/>\n<\/strong> Get up, Matteo!

This gives you <strong>two valid options<\/strong>: the pronoun can come before the verb (<em>non ti alzare<\/em>) or be attached to it (<em>non alzarti<\/em>). For all other forms, you simply add <em>non<\/em> before the regular imperative form.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Signor Rossi, non si dimentichi di venire alla riunione!<br \/>\n<\/strong> Mr. Rossi, don&#8217;t forget to come to the meeting!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Non arrabbiarti! \/ Non ti arrabbiare!<br \/>\n<\/strong> Don&#8217;t get angry!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Non addormentatevi proprio ora!<br \/>\n<\/strong> Don&#8217;t fall asleep just now!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><a id=\"post-7103-_y5lffl4egida\"><\/a><strong>Reciprocal Italian reflexive verbs<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When you say &#8220;They love each other&#8221; in English, you are describing a <strong>reciprocal action between two people<\/strong>.
