Rules

In order to conjugate a reflexive verb (that we recognize because it has se) we need to use reflexive pronouns

If  we have one verb only, we place the respective pronoun in front of the verb

Se ducha….

If we have a two verb unit – “I need”, we can place the pronoun attached to the second verb or in front of both

Necesito banarme

Me necesito banar

Put reflexive pronoun and then conjugate the verb. (take off the se and then change the ending)

Me – Yo

Te – Tu

Se – El.Ella.Ud.

Nos – Nosotros
