2. Reflexive Pronouns

We use the Reflexive Pronoun when the action of the doer goes back to himself so that the Subject of the sentence is the same person as the object.
EXAMPLE: He has hurt himself.

Pronouns like 'himself' are called Reflexive Pronouns. They always end in '-self or -selves'.

Reflexive Pronouns	Singular	Plural
First Person	I : Myself	We : Ourselves
Second Person	You : Yourself	You : Yourself
Third Person	He : Himself She : Herself It : Itself	They : Themselves They : Themselves They : Themselves

The words in bold type can be used to make the action of a verb refer back to the subject. They are called reflexive pronouns.
