Talk:Mediopassive voice

message: This original def:
:The mediopassive voice is a grammatical voice in which the actor of a stative verb is not expressed. This is a special type of passive voice, which is the general phenomena of the actor of a verb not being expressed.
Is just plain wrong. Benwing 06:14, 1 August 2005 (UTC)

message: "Reciprocal: "Vi ses" is the everyday expression equivalent in Danish to the English "See you." The present active is "vi ser" (we see); the mediopassive (commonly called passive) form is historically derived thus: de ser sig ("they see themselves") → de ses ("they are seen" or "they see themselves/see each other" or "we will be seen by each other". The meaning is reciprocal, one of the medial uses: "We'll be seeing each other.""
I don't think that it's quite right to translated "de ses" to "we will be seen by each other". "De ses", first off, is third person ("they are seen/see themselves"). Further, the future progressive -- which I'll confess to have introduced here in the first place -- is not really good, I think, in the way it's used now. Danish verbs don't really have any distinction of aspects, its tenses are mainly about tempus. (To explicitly distinct the progressive present from the plain present in Danish, you'd have to use an rephrasing outside the verbal system itself, like "jeg sidder og læser" or "jeg er ved at læse" for "I'm reading".)  Anywayz... as I first introduced this bit myself, making a leap in the name of economy of words, I'll make yet another edit in an attempt to brush out the confusion I feel has introduced since then.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bantaar (talk • contribs) 19:04, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Danish citation 

message: This paragraph is incomplete, hard to understand and contradicts itself:
:An example sentence is El padre se enojó al ver a su hijo romper la lámpara. The English translation is "The father became angry upon seeing his son break the lamp." The verb se enojó is said to be mediopassive because it comprises the reflexive pronoun se and the simple verb enojó, which together literally mean "angered himself." This would be literally translated "The father angered himself upon seeing his son break the lamp." Pragmatics quickly rejects the middle-voice meaning for the intended mediopassive-voice meaning, translated above as "got angry," because the mediopassive voice is rarely used. Many intransitive Spanish verbs behave that way: me caí, I fell; me cansé, I became tired.
Can we correct it, complete it or give a better example?

message: Hello 
in the Croatian part of this article there is text about reflexive voice 
Reflexive Voice (Verb) is "reflexive verb is, loosely, a verb whose direct object is the same as its subject; for example, "I wash myself"."It's right there on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflexive_verb 
That's exactly what's in croatian part, so it should be in this article rather than here
