Review Summary

  • Verb + ся (after consonant) / сь (after vowel)

أخطاء شائعة

You missed the reflexive suffix! 'Умываю' sounds like you are washing someone else.

Wrong: Я умываю.
صحيح: Я умываюсь.

Don't double the suffix; the base conjugation already includes the reflexive marker.

Wrong: Он одеваетсяся.
صحيح: Он одевается.

The suffix -сь is used after vowels. Adding -ся here is redundant.

Wrong: Я просыпаюсься.
صحيح: Я просыпаюсь.

Next Steps

You've conquered the reflexive! Keep up the momentum as we move into timing your day.

أسئلة شائعة (2)

It is a short version of the word 'себя', which means 'oneself'. It turns the action back onto the person doing it.
Use -ся after consonants (like т, м, шь) and -сь after vowels (like ю, и, е). It makes the word easier to pronounce.
