autoconsiderarse

to consider oneself (as)

Usage

To consider oneself something — a self-assessment of identity, status, or quality: se autoconsidera un experto en la materia. Very close in meaning to plain considerarse, with auto- adding emphasis that the judgment is entirely self-given.

Examples
  • Se autoconsidera un experto, aunque nadie más lo reconoce como tal.He considers himself an expert, though no one else recognizes him as one.
  • La empresa se autoconsidera líder del mercado.The company considers itself a market leader.
  • No me autoconsidero especialmente talentoso, solo trabajador.I don't consider myself especially talented, just hardworking.
Common mistake

Using autoconsiderarse when plain considerarse already does the job — the auto- prefix is largely redundant here (considerarse is already reflexive), so many editors and style guides prefer the shorter form.
