If you check the lesson you will find that "sér" is a reflexive pronoun:
"himself." It is not the verb in this case, as can be told from the context.
It rather reminds me of my native dialect of English, which allowed things
like "Come hither with thu!"

If you are using Windows, you already have the capability - it just requires a
little time to learn how to get all the characters. Somewhere hiding on your
computer you will have an accessory program called "Character Map" which will
show you the available letters and tell you how to type them.
