Editing Reflexive verb (section)

===Intransitive or impersonal===
{{see also|Impersonal passive voice|Mediopassive voice}}

"Intransitive" forms (also known as "impersonal reflexive" or "mediopassive") are obtained by attaching the reflexive pronoun to intransitive verbs. The grammatical subject is either omitted (in [[pro-drop language]]s) or is a [[dummy pronoun]] (otherwise). Thus, those verbs are [[defective verb|defective]], as they have only the 3rd person singular (masculine or neuter, depending on language) form.

In Slavic languages, practically "the only condition is that they can be construed as having a human agent. The applied human agent can be generic, or loosely specified collective or individual."<ref name="Djurkovic">{{cite web|url=http://www.rceal.cam.ac.uk/Publications/Working/Vol10/Djurkovic.pdf|title=Passive and Impersonal in English and Serbian|author=Milja Djurkovic|publisher=Research Centre for English and Applied Linguistics University of Cambridge|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061008154658/http://www.rceal.cam.ac.uk/Publications/Working/Vol10/Djurkovic.pdf|archive-date=2006-10-08}}</ref>

In many cases, there is a semantic overlap between impersonal/anticausative/autocausative constructs and the [[passive voice]] (also present in all Romance and Slavic languages).<ref name="Djurkovic"/> On one hand, impersonal reflexive constructs have a wider scope of application, as they are not limited to transitive verbs like the canonical passive voice. On the other hand, those constructs can have slight semantic difference or [[markedness]].
