| This has the consequence that the readings dependent on the long-distance binding of the reflexives are incorrectly ruled out. |
| Analysis of the alternation between impersonal reflexives and reflexive passives in Spanish shows that higher animacy makes an argument less marked as an object. |
| Binding is concerned with the type of anaphora found with pronouns and reflexives, but the notion is greatly extended. |
| Secondly, English is the only Germanic language with few reflexives that are spelled out. |
| In other languages, reflexives are even less amenable to a two-participant interpretation. |
| But this interpretation is outlawed by the semantics of referential dependence associated with reflexives. |
