Read the theory, then fill in the correct
pronouns. Is each one reflexive or emphatic?
Reflexive pronouns are/can be used:
• after certain verbs and prepositions e.g. burn,
cut, wash, make, hurt, etc. when the subject
and object of the verb are the same. He hurt
himself while digging in the garden.
• to describe emotions/states after be, feel,
seem. You don't seem yourself today.
• after prepositions. They should be ashamed of themselves!
Emphatic pronouns give emphasis to the noun. She herself prepared everything for the party They can also mean ‘without help’. I made the cake myself.
