To talk about actions you did to yourself in the past, like 'I got up' or 'we got ready', you need the reflexive passé composé. The structure is simple: you use the reflexive pronoun, then the verb 'être' in the present tense, followed by the past participle. For example, with the verb 'se lever', meaning 'to get up', you would say 'Je me suis levé'.
Quiz#2
Translate into French: 'I got up late.'
Je me suis levé tard.
Quiz#3
How do you say 'You got up' in French, speaking to a friend?
Tu t'es levé.
Lesson#4
Let's look at another example. The verb 'se blesser' means 'to hurt oneself'. To say 'she hurt herself', you would say 'Elle s’est blessée'. Notice how the past participle 'blessé' agrees with the subject 'elle'.
Quiz#5
Translate into French: 'She hurt herself.'
Elle s’est blessée.
Quiz#6
How do you say 'He hurt himself' in French?
Il s’est blessé.
