Hi Vijay,

There are a few verbs that are essentially pronominal like -

s'évanouir ( to faint),  s'enfuir ( to flee),  se méfier ( to distrust)  as there are no stand-alone verbs,  évanouir, enfuir, or méfier.

But most other pronominal verbs will have other forms changing their original meanings -

apercevoir = to see ( in the distance)

et

s'apercevoir = to realise

préparer to prepare

et

se préparer = to get ready 

 

etc.

Bonne Continuation!
