Answer 2

you will merely say Yo juego los lunes. i'm not somewhat expertise why you think of you like the "me" there. Following the hassle-free regulations of spanish grammer, yo + conjugated verb. you will use "Me" with reflexive verbs like lavarse, ducharse, ect. those verbs are strikes which you do to your self, as an occasion, cleansing your self, showering your self. you will not say you "play your self." you will merely say "i play", yo juego. i'm sorry, i'm incredibly undesirable at explaining issues. desire that made sense, in some way shape or form.
