When the person performing the action in the sentence is also the object of the sentence, the writer should use a (possessive, reciprocal, reflexive, subjective) pronoun that ends in the suffix -self or -selves. A: possessive B: reciprocal C: reflexive D: subjective
Answer:
C: Reflexive.
Explanation:
A pronoun is a word that is used in place of a noun. This means that pronouns replace the noun in a sentence to avoid repetition and to make the sentence seem or sound smoother.
When a pronoun is used to refer to a person doing the action and also is the object of the sentence, then that pronoun used will be reflexive in nature. This means that the pronoun reflects the subject as well as the object refers to the same person. This is easy to identify by the presence or use of "self/ selves" in the suffix of a pronoun.
For example, in the sentence "She ate the whole cake herself", the pronoun "she" does the action "ate" and then refers back to "herself" which makes the pronoun reflexive in nature.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
