When the noun in front of verb is same thing as after what kind do you have?

You're describing a reflexive verb.

A reflexive verb is a verb that has a direct object that is the same as the subject of the verb. The direct object is usually a reflexive pronoun (myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves).

Here are some examples:

* She dressed herself. (The subject is "she" and the object is "herself" - the same person)

* I hurt myself. (The subject is "I" and the object is "myself" - the same person)

* The dog scratched itself. (The subject is "dog" and the object is "itself" - the same animal)

Let me know if you have any more questions!
