Question
intensive & reflexive pronouns quiz #3
question 2 of 10
jake made himself proud when he did well on the project.
reflexive
intensive
Brief Explanations
Reflexive pronouns reflect the action back to the subject. In the sentence, "himself" refers to Jake (the subject) and is necessary for the meaning ("made proud" requires an object that is the same as the subject). Intensive pronouns emphasize the subject but are removable; here, "himself" is not removable.
