ο εαυτός μου

Explicit Self-Reference

Level 3Sounds Like o eautós mou

Ο εαυτός μου and corresponding forms make reflexive reference explicit.

How It Works

Ο εαυτός μου and corresponding forms make reflexive reference explicit.

Εαυτός changes case according to its role, while the short possessive identifies the person. This differs from every middle-passive verb: a lexical middle-passive need not involve self-directed action.

Greek	Meaning
Βλέπω τον εαυτό μου.	I see myself.
Μιλάει για τον εαυτό της.	She talks about herself.
Προσέχουμε τον εαυτό μας.	We take care of ourselves.
