Reflexive Pronouns
A reflexive pronoun is paired with another noun or pronoun to show it is acting on itself. They have a different function to emphatic pronouns, but they're the same words (myself, yourself, herself, himself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, and themselves). In these examples, the subject (in bold) is the antecedent of the reflexive pronoun.
