ABSTRACT
This chapter talks about colours, adjectives used as nouns, reflexive verbs and use of myself, jouself with reflexive verbs in Afrikaans language with some examples. All adjectives take -e when used as nouns after articles, demonstratives and possessives. The concept of reflexive verbs is a difficult one to grasp. This is one aspect of Afrikaans grammar that is in the process of being heavily influenced by English, which has already led to many previously reflexive verbs no longer requiring a reflexive pronoun, or where the pronoun is optional. The reflexive pronoun always stands after the finite verb, whether that verb is the reflexive verb itself or an auxiliary verb; in a subordinate clause only the finite verb moves to the end of the clause, while the reflexive pronoun retains its position after the subject. The reflexive pronouns given above also occur with the addition of -self.
