Reciprocal Verbs Francais 4 Chapter 4 Grammar 1 Reciprocal Verbs • Reciprocal Verbs are similar to reflexive verbs • Pronouns nous, vous, and se can be used to make a verb reciprocal – they mean for/to/at each other when added before a verb • EXAMPLES – Nous nous aimons. = We love each other – Ils se rencontrent au café. = They’re meeting each other at the café. Reciprocal Verbs • In the passe compose, use être as the helping verb when making a verb reciprocal • The past participle MUST agree with the pronoun when it is the direct object of the sentence • EXAMPLES – Nous avons vu Paul hier -> • Nous nous sommes vus hier. – Elle ont revu Paul au musée. -> • Elle se sont revues au musée. Reciprocal Verbs • DO NOT make the past participle agree when the pronoun is the indirect object of the verb – If the pronoun answers the question to whom it is an indirect object – Verbs that take indirect objects include • Conseiller • demander • Dire écrire offrir parler plaire téléphoner • Examples – J’ai parle à Pauline -> Nous nous sommes parlé.
