What is "reflexivity"?
Reflexivity is a grammatical or semantic feature in language where the subject of a verb is also the object or receiver of the action that the subject performs. This creates a self-referential relationship within a sentence. For example, in the sentence "She washed herself," "she" is both the doer of the action and the one receiving it. Reflexivity helps express actions that involve the same person or thing in both roles, making it clear that the action is directed back at the subject.
