Reflexive Pronouns
Portuguese reflexive verbs are formed by adding the reflexive pronouns “-me” (myself), “-te” (yourself), “-se” (his/her/themselves), or “-nos” (ourselves).The present simple conjugation is:
- Eu lembro-me
- Tu lembras-te
- Você/ele/ela lembra-se
- Nós lembramo-nos
- Vocês/eles/elas lembram-se
💡 Language tip: In the first person plural (nós), when the reflexive pronoun comes after the verb, the final “-s” of the verb is dropped. For example: “Nós vestimos” + “-nos” ➡ “nós vestimo-nos” (We dress ourselves).
