Reflexive pronouns and intensive pronouns in English

- This is an English grammar lesson about reflexive pronouns and intensive pronouns.
Here is the list: myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves and themselves)
Reflexive pronouns are used when the subject and object of the sentence are the same person. They take the place of the object and they reflect back to the subject.
An example is "I hurt myself while playing football." In this lesson, I explain in detail how to use these pronouns to form reflexive verbs as well as describing common mistakes and how to avoid making them.
Intensive pronouns are the same words as the reflexives but are used very differently. We use them to emphasise a noun (the antecedent), usually the subject.
In the lesson, I explain in detail how to use them with several examples.
At the end of the lesson, there are some exercises to test your understanding.
The accent in the video is a British English accent.

Why are intensive pronouns even a thing?! They are an American superfluous nonsense.

Thanks A. good lesson...21.2.2017
thank you! this is so helpful esp in grade 10:)
20:39 Is ¨Mark shaves himself every morning¨ wrong because of the redundancy that happens when the word ¨himself¨ is added? If not what is the reason then?
Ash Lynx 👨🏻🏫 Hello. Mr Teacher here in England 🏴. I have an answer to your question. You are correct in pointing out the extra word ‘himself’ in this example. However, for teaching purposes it is grammatically correct, following the examples in the chart Andrew showed. Here is my example sentence where I use ‘himself’ in this form ‘Usain Bolt proved himself a world champion athlete by winning three gold medals 🏅🏅🏅.’ I hope this is helpful for you.
thank you the lesson see you
thankyou
i enjoyed meself, and learnt a lot.
Sadan Boragalla Excellent, thanks for the comment. A small spelling correction: *myself*

Din't know that anime exist omg 😲 ehehhhehe
Sir, can we use by preposition with reflexive pronouns
Is there any difference among these following sentences?
I baked it myself.
I baked it by myself.
I baked it on my own.
Thank you in advance!
None. The two are intensive pronouns, meaning, they baked it on my own.
God bless you
Hola, cual es la diferencia en español, al decir "We prefer to work by ourselves" y "We prefer to work ourselves"
Well done
How is done?
why it is used as a direct object i think its only indirect object because “jane is teaching herself to play the piano” “to play the piano” is object to the verb teaching its infinitive
thanks
THANKS 🙏:o)
I'm just trying to find out what reflexive verbs are, (I'm trying to learn French) I just came to find out in my own language and still don't understand. 👌
Very nice explanation. Thank you so much 😊
fantastic
Thanks for your comment. I am happy that you like my English lessons.
Best wishes,

they enjoyed picture last evening and they enjoyed themselves during summer vacation,whats the difference, thanks
Good
May I just ask, the by+pronoun structure... is it for intensive of reflexive? I've watched some video tutorials but I found that, it uses the by+reflexive pronoun structure. I am confused. Please clarify. Thanks!
