         <description><![CDATA[<p>Reflexive verbs are used to describe actions where the subject is performing the action on itself.</p><p>They are conjugated by following the regular conjugation patterns of verbs, but with an additional reflexive pronoun placed before the verb. The reflexive pronouns correspond to the subject of the sentence and show that the action is being done to oneself.</p><p>An example would be Despertarse (to wake up)</p><ul><li><p>Yo me despierto – I wake up.</p></li><li><p>Tú te despiertas – You wake up.</p></li><li><p>Él/Ella se despierta – He/She wakes up.</p></li><li><p>Nosotros nos despertamos – We wake up.</p></li></ul>]]></description>
