Modern Greek reciprocals

Modern Greek marks reciprocity with nonactive verbal morphology, which also expresses reflexives, passives and middles, and with the periphrastic o enas ton allon 'the one the other'. Nonactive reciprocal verbs form discontinuous reciprocals with me 'with' (O Giannis filithike me ti Maria 'John and Maria kissed each other', [Nor23] exx. 27b, 36, from [Dim08]), which on [Sil08]'s analysis marks lexical formation.
