Punto di partenza Reciprocal verbs are reflexives that express a shared or reciprocal action between two or more people or things. In English we often express a reciprocal meaning by using (to) each other or (to) one another. Si amano? Do they love each other? Non si parlano. They aren’t speaking to each other. © and ® 2011 Vista Higher Learning, Inc.

Reciprocal verbs follow the same pattern as reflexive verbs, but they are limited to the plural forms noi, voi, and loro. Domani Silvia e Davide si sposano. Tomorrow Silvia and Davide are getting married (to each other). Io e Alessandro ci scriviamo spesso. Alessandro and I often write to one another. © and ® 2011 Vista Higher Learning, Inc. 2

We address each other familiarly. I miei gatti si odiano. Ci diamo del tu. We address each other familiarly. I miei gatti si odiano. My cats hate one another. Le ragazze si aiutano a studiare.

Note that the use of reciprocal verbs can be ambiguous Note that the use of reciprocal verbs can be ambiguous. For example, si guardano can mean they look at themselves or they look at each other. To clarify or emphasize a verb’s reciprocal meaning, use phrases like fra di loro, l’un l’altro (males only), or l’un l’altra (when there is one or more female in a group). Renzo e Lucia si guardano l’un l’altra. Renzo and Lucia are looking at one another. Vi parlate fra di voi in inglese o in italiano?
