The reflexive pronoun for "own" meaning
Is it possible to use the reflexive pronoun for "own" meaning?
For example,are below sentences true? 1- she wanted to burn her own car = (Ella) Quería quemarse el coche 2- (Ella) se quemó el coche = She burned her own car |
(Ella) quería quemarse el coche :warning: :approx: El coche quería quemarse...
It's correct; but nobody says that. It can interpreted as if the car decided to burn itself up. Ella se quemó el coche :bad: :approx: ""She burned herself up the car."" :bad: It has no sense. Here there are two direct objects: "se" and "el coche". :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: |
I think the best translation for "she wanted to burn her own car" is:
Ella Quería quemar su propio coche what is your idea? |
I agree.
