Usage notes

Note that some verbs have special senses when used reflexively. For example, do not confuse du lär dig att... ("you learn to...") [reflexive] while jag lär dig att... ("I teach you to...") and du lär dig själv att... ("you teach yourself to..."). Here, lär means teach(es) if it is not reflexive, but learn(s) if it is reflexive. Hence the need for the separate pronoun "dig själv" to be used when object and subject agree, but the verb nevertheless should not be used in the reflexive case.
