Act #21: Ambassadress

Past participle agreement : exception + more pronominal verbs

Valérie: Dans notre deuxième leçon de grammaire, nous allons apprendre plus de... pronominal verbs. Je suis sûre que vous les avez déjà étudiés.
Michelle: Valérie, vous me connaissez bien... oui, je les connais tous... by heart.
Valérie: Vous avez remarqué que certains sont réflexifs... that means the subject performs the action on itself.
Michelle: Je crois que je comprends... je m’habille means I dress myself.
Valérie: Exactement. Ou je me lave...I wash myself. It’s important to remember that some pronominal verbs do not express reflexive actions; they’re just idiomatic like “to make a mistake, ”se tromper ou “to get angry,” se fâcher. D’accord ?
