OTHER USES OF REFLEXIVE VERBS
Normally reflexive verbs show action done to oneself. Reflexive pronouns also have
other uses, such as passive voice and reciprocal action.
A. Passive voice. When there is no definite subject, i.e. no specific person performing
the action, the passive voice is used. One way to use the passive voice in Spanish is
with the pronoun “se” and a verb in the third person. The sentence pattern is:
Se + verb in third person singular + singular direct object.
Se + verb in third person plural + plural direct object.
Here are two examples:
Se habla inglés en Australia.
English is spoken in Australia.
Se venden libros en una librería.
Books are sold in a bookstore.
B. Reciprocal action. In the plural (nosotros, vosotros, ellos/Uds.) reflexive pronouns
(nos, os, se) can be used to mean “each other.” Here are some examples:
Juana y yo nos telefoneamos a menudo.
Juana and I phone each other often.
Enrique y Daniela se ven rara vez.
Enrique and Daniela rarely see each other.

5. You buy food in a supermarket. _______________________________________
6. Juan and Pablo know each other well. ___________________________________
7. We see each other every weekend. ____________________________________
8. ¿Do you all send each other letters? ___________________________________
9. My parents never fight (w/ each other). _________________________________
10. Ana and Paco don’t get along (w/each other). _____________________________

VERBS WITH ACCENTS IN THE PRESENT INDICATIVE TENSE
Some verbs require an accent to break up the dipthong in order to place the stress on
the proper syllable. A dipthong is a weak vowel (i/y, u) and a strong vowel (a, e, o) or two
weak vowels coming together to form one syllable. When it is necessary to break up a
dipthong, the accent is placed on the weak vowel.
esquiar = to ski
enviar = to send
continuar = to continue
graduarse = to graduate
esquiar
yo esquío
nosotros esquiamos
tú esquías
vosotros esquiáis
él, ella, Ud. esquía
ellos, ellas, Uds. esquían
continuar
yo continúo
nosotros continuamos
tú continúas
vosotros continuáis
él, ella, Ud. continúa
ellos, ellas, Uds. continúan
*Verbs such as estudiar and limpiar do not require accents because the stress is not
placed on the “i” (ex: e-stu-dio, lim-pia-mos)
Traduce las frases a español.
1. I send a postcard ________________________________________________
2. Pepe and I ski each winter. ________________________________________
3. The students graduate soon. _______________________________________
4. Felipe continues talking. ___________________________________________
5. Do you ski well? _________________________________________________
