Reflexive verbs in French are verbs which mean an action done to oneself, for example, laver means 'to wash', but se laver means 'to get washed' or literally ‘to wash oneself’. Reflexive verbs follow the normal formation patterns and many are regular -er verbs. They just have an extra pronoun. Here’s an example with se laver in the present tense: French English Je me lave I wash myself Tu te laves You wash yourself Il/elle/on se lave He washes himself/she washes herself/we wash ourselves Nous nous lavons We wash ourselves Vous vous lavez You wash yourselves Ils/elles se lavent They wash themselves Remember that me, te, se become m', t', s' before a vowel ( source BBC)
