二 反身代词
反身代词作句中宾语时，表示动作返回到主语本身。或者说，句子的主语和宾语是同一个人或物。例如：

He hurt himself.(作动词宾语)

Dick bought himself a new coat.(作间接宾语)

I heard Jane talk to herself.(作介词宾语)

2. 强调用法

反身代词用作同位语时，在句中起强调作用，其位置也比较灵活。例如：

I went to see the mayor myself.(强调主语)

We spoke to the mayor himself.(强调宾语)

The mayor himself met us at the door.(紧随主语之后)

The mayor met us at the door himself.(在句末)

3. 使用反身代词时的常见错误

反身代词一般不可用作句子中的主语、表语或定语。如：

* Ourselves can do it.(误作主语)

We can do it ourselves. 我们自己能干。

* I could hardly imagine that the car was himself.(误作表语)

I could hardly imagine that the car was his own. 简直难以想象那汽车是他自己的。

* That's myself problem.(误作定语)

That's a problem of my own.那是我自己的问题。

注意：在少数习惯表达中反身代词可不受语法限制。

I'm not myself today. (我今天不在状态/感觉不好。)

In office myself, I helped her get a job.

(我帮她在我自己的办公室找了一份工作。)
