Key learning points
- Reflexive verbs have the same subject and object.
- To conjugate plural reflexive verbs, place the pronouns 'nos', 'os' and 'se' before verbs with the corresponding ending.
- Possessive adjectives show who something belongs to and possessive pronouns replace possessive adjectives + nouns.
- The possessive adjectives 'mío', 'tuyo' and 'suyo' can follow 'ser' to show belonging to, e.g. 'la bolsa es mía'.
- To form possessive pronouns, use the definite article before 'mío', 'suyo' or 'tuyo', based on gender and number.
