Reciprocal verbs are widely debated in the current linguistics. However, other parts of speech can be characterized by reciprocity as well – in contrast to verbs, their analysis is underdeveloped so far.

We show that many aspects characteristic of reciprocal verbs hold for reciprocal nouns as well.
