However, if I look in the mirror and see myself, the verb is reflexive because I (subject) and me (object) are the same person. Another way of looking at a reflexive verb is to say that the action doesn’t go anywhere.

Some reflexive verbs happen to be irregular verbs. Some are stem-changing verbs. This means they have a change on the stem. On all forms, except on “nosotros”. When two “e” s in the stem on the word, you need to change the second “e” (the first one is a prefex, that never will change).

“Irse” mean: to go away. Example: Ya me voy. Butt: Voy a la escuela.

Spanish:

Favor de presinor el timbre para ingresar.

English:

Los granos de cacao, base para elaborar chocolare, son las semillas del arbol de cacao. Se encuentran cubiertos por una pulpa blanca y dulce, dentro de las mazorcas del cacao. Una variedad de quimicos,incluyendo la teobromina que es muy similar a la cafeina, dan a las semillas un sabor amargo.

Los granos de cacao solo pueden germinar dentro de 2 semanas de haber sido cosechados.

Cacao beans, the base for making chocolate are the seeds of the cacao tree.

They are found inside the cacao pods surrounded by a sweet white pulp.

A variety of chemicals, including teobromine that is very similar to caffeine, give the seeds a bitter flavor. Beans Can only germinate within 2 weeks of being harvested.

Cuando los monos, aes, huamanos o otros animals abren las mazorcas para Saborear la deliciosa pulpa, escupen las semillas amargas.

Esta es la adaptacion que el arbol de cacao ha evolucionado de manera que sus semillas tocan el suelo y crean arboles nuevos.

When monkeys, birds, human or other animals break open the pods to reach the delicious sweet pulp, they spit out the bitter tasting seeds.

This is the clever adaptation that the cacao tree evolved so that its seeds hit the forest floor and sprout into new trees.

Las mazorcas de cacao son los frutos del arbol de cacao. Las flores que llegan a ser polinizadas se convierten en este fruto de forma rugosa y ovalada. El proceso de maduracion dura alrededor de cinco meses.
