Today we study a group of
verbs called “verbi riflessivi” (reflexive verbs).
We already know the reflexive verb “chiamarsi” which is
one of the first verbs the students learn in a Italian course. This
verb, in fact, is used to introduce ourselves or to ask someone’s
name. The expressions: “io mi chiamo ...”, “tu ti chiami ...”
can be translated literally with “I call myself ...”, “you call
yourself ...”.
