the many jobs of se · povratnost II

reflexive, reciprocal, impersonal

the many jobs of se

· povratnost II
each other · one/people · it opens
se has several jobs. Reciprocal (each other): poznata se. Impersonal (one/people): tukaj se ne kadi. Change of state: vrata se odprejo (the door opens). And some verbs only exist with se: smejati se (laugh), bati se (fear), zgoditi se (happen).
