Reflexive Pronouns Practice

Reflexive pronouns are used when the subject and object of a sentence are the same. Some examples of reflexive pronouns in English are myself, yourself, ourselves, and themselves. Reflexive pronouns are used after verbs like wash, dress, and shave when the subject and object are the same person or thing. Adding "by" before a reflexive pronoun means the subject acted alone. Reflexive pronouns are not used with verbs like wash, shave, and dress which already indicate something is done to oneself.
