Answer:

They take the same form, but reflexive is the most mis-used grammatical structure in English these days.

Intensive is used to reiterate, underscore, in other words, intensify the noun’s role in the idea the sentence is relating.

Reflexive is used when the object the subject is acting on is the same person, place, or thing.

I’ll use ‘myself’ as an example. This is the first person singular reflexive and intensive pronoun.

“I gave myself a present.” Here the subject is “I”, the first person singular. The action is being received by the same person. It is reflexive. The action is reflecting back onto the subject.

Answer:

A reflexive pronoun ends with -self or -selves and refers to the subject of a sentence. ... The words myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, and themselves can also be used as intensive pronouns.

Explanation:

A reflexive pronoun reflects back on the subject of the sentence while an intensive pronoun adds emphasis or intensity to a noun.

Reflexive: Drew decided to treat himself to a fancy dinner.

Intensive: Jonathan built the shed in the backyard all by himself.
