Reciprocal Reflexive verb



reciprocal reflexive denotes agents perform mutual actions among themselves. in cases, transitive verbs used.



in modern scandinavian languages, passive (or more mediopassive) voice used medial, reciprocal, constructions. examples danish are



maria og peter skændes; mary , peter bickering , lit. mary , peter scolded each other.


maria og peter blev forlovet; mary , peter got engaged [to each other].

(the hypothetical form **kysses (kiss each other) not often—if ever—seen in danish; however, understood native speakers, indicating mediopassive voice still @ least potentially productive in danish. expression de kysses uafladeligt (they kiss each other time) used humorous purposes.)
