When the subject of a sentence is first or second person, the same pronoun is repeated (with the accusative ending -nhttps://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/-n#Esperanto added if needed) instead of using si. (E.g. "they wash themselves" is ili lavas sin, but "I wash myself" is mi lavas min, instead of *mi lavas sin.)
