Reflexive pronouns in French
Unfortunately, French is a language with many exceptions to the rule. However, one example whereby you can guarantee that no exceptions occur is the following:
No matter which tense you are using, no matter how complicated or simple your sentence is, when using reflexive verbs, for example, se doucher, se relaxer, s’amuser, se laver, the reflexive pronoun must ALWAYS reflect the subject of the sentence.
Reflexive pronouns are:-
me
te
se
nous
vous
se
Let’s look closely at some examples.
Je me douche tous les jours
Tu vas te relaxer en vacances
Il s’amusera en Italie
Nous nous attendions à ce que les enfants arrivent à 8 heures
Est-ce que vous voulez vous relaxer cet après-midi?
Ils s’y seraient lavés
