Reflexive verbs?
The pronoun is used to ‘reflect’ the action of the verb back to the subject
In English it is like saying myself/himself etc
DESPERTARSEMe despierto a las siete (I wake up at 7)
LLAMARSEMe llamo Caroline (I call myself Caroline)

The fact that the verb is reflexive does not change the way that a verb is constructed…

Just conjugate it as you would any other –AR ending verb.

It can be placed in two different ways:
Directly in front of the conjugated verb
