Talk:Impersonal passive voice
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not only German, but Danish, Norvegian and Swedish have the exact same construction.
[edit] Anticausative verbs
Should we add a section about anticausative verbs in Romance languages? For example, "se habla espaƱol", literally "Spanish speaks itself", could mean either "they speak Spanish" (where "they" is a non-specific group) or "Spanish is spoken". I had taken a small stab at it, but I removed it mostly because I'm not sure "impersonal passive" is a good description for it... - furrykef (Talk at me) 12:00, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
