Reflexive tenses use the auxiliary verb aver ("to have"), as in English, German, and Spanish; instead of essar ("to be"), which would be normal in Italian. The past participle is invariable, unlike Italian:
Italian: (Tu) ti sei lavato (lit. "(You) yourself are washed").
Venetian: (Ti) te te ŕ/ga/ghč lavŕ (lit. "(You) you yourself have washed").
Italian: (Loro) si sono svegliati (lit. "(They) themselves are awakened").
Venetian: (Luri) i se ga/ŕ svejŕ (lit. "(They) they themselves have awakened").
