3.  But…sentirse is a little different from verbs we have conjugated before.  First of all we conjugate it as a (e-ie) stem- changing verb.

4.  Yo  Siento  Tu  Sientes  El/Ella/Usted  Siente  Nosotros  Sentimos  Vosotros  Sentís  Ellos/Ellas Usteded  Sienten SientoSentimos SientesSentís SienteSienten

5.  But…sentirse is also what we call a “reflexive verb”.  “Reflexive verbs” are verbs in which the subject and the object are the same.  So we need a new set of pronouns.

6. MeNos TeOs Se Notice these are not the same as our “Doler” and “Gustar” Pronouns.

7.  To make the verb reflexive, you just conjugate the verb normally and place that reflexive pronoun in front of the verb.  Como se dice…  You feel….  Te sientes

8.  Here is the entire verb conjugated. Me Siento I feel Nos Sentimos We feel Te Sientes You feel Os Sentís You all feel (Spain) Se Siente He/She feels Se Sienten They feel

9.  Use both “Estar” and “Sentirse” to tell me how this person feels.
