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!
