This word has been confusing me for the longest time. How do you use the word "się" in polish. Can I have a short lesson.

I am only a beginner but I find that it is usually used with verbs.

Interesuję się: I am interested in
budżę się: I wake up
nudzę się: I am bored

It is said that you shouldn't put się at the end of a sentance so you can put it in different places in the sentance instead of at the end although I am sure that there are exceptions. :-)

"Się" (pronounced roughly 'shyeeaun') translates to "oneself", "myself", "himself", "themselves" respectively:-) Furthermore, unlike in other European languages with reflexive, "się" NEVER changes in accordance with person or number!
