Significados de Themselves em português

Le mot "themselves" est un pronom réfléchi utilisé en anglais pour désigner le sujet d'une phrase lorsque ce sujet effectue une action sur lui-même. Il est couramment utilisé dans divers contextes, tant formels qu'informels.

Utilisation quotidienne

  1. Contexte d'usage :

    • "Themselves" est souvent utilisé pour mettre l'accent sur le fait que les personnes mentionnées agissent de manière autonome ou indépendante.
    • Il est fréquent dans des phrases où le sujet est pluriel ou indéfini (par exemple, "they" ou "people").

  2. Exemples :

Erreurs courantes

Mots apparentés
