Reflexive pronouns

A reflexive pronoun shows that the subject does the action and the subject is the same person who receives it.

for example:

In the previous example,"Miriam" is the subject. She does the action. But... who receives the action?

In contrast to the object pronouns, where the subject and the receiver of the action are different, the reflexive pronouns show that the subject and the receiver of the action are the same.

In the previos example "she" was the subject and "him" was the object or receiver of the action.

"she" is the subject doing the action of "talk" and "herself" is the same person but receiving the action.
