Should this read, "...is a verb or an object of a reflexive pronoun"

When to use ce qui instead of ce queThe pattern to spot is that we use ce qui when the next word is a verb or an object or reflexive pronoun (for example: me, te, se, lui, le, la, nous, vous, leur, les).

Hi Mark,

I think what is meant is:

...what follows is a verb,  an object pronoun, or a reflexive pronoun 

Below are examples of direct/indirect object pronouns following ce qui -

Je fais ce qui me plaît I do as I please 

Ce qui le surprend, c'est la rapidité du changement = What surprises him is the speed of the change

Faisons ce qui leur convient = Let's do what suit them

Hope these help.
