There are only two of '''us''', and that is us [we – subject].

====Usage notes====
Note that some verbs have special senses when used reflexively. For example, do not confuse ''vi lär oss att...'' ("we learn to...") [reflexive] with ''de lär oss att...'' ("they teach us to...") and ''vi lär oss själva att...'' ("we teach ourselves to..."). Here, ''lär'' means ''teach(es)'' if it is not reflexive, but ''learn(s)'' if it is reflexive. Hence the need for the separate pronoun "oss själva" to be used when object and subject agree, but the verb nevertheless should not be used in the reflexive case.
