is the pronoun in the sentence below reflexive, intensive, both, or neither? Johnny bought himself a new basketball. neither reflexive intensive both

Respuesta :

The correct answer is reflexive.
Reflexive pronouns are used when the object of the sentence is the same person as the subject. Here, the subject is Johnny and given that he bought something for himself, he is also the object. Although the pronoun himself can sometimes be intensive, this is not the case where it is. Intensive pronoun would be if the sentence said: Johnny himself bought a new basketball.

reflexive is the correct answer
