Informarse is the reflexive form of informar, so it always takes a reflexive pronoun – me, te, se, nos, os or se – that matches the subject. The verb itself is conjugated the same way: in the present tense, yo informo becomes me informo. In the affirmative tú imperative the pronoun attaches to the end of the verb, so informa becomes infórmate.
