This paper provides a description of reciprocal morphemes in Wolof. We presentthree verbal affixes associated with reciprocal interpretations, and we propose thatthey reflect different strategies: -ante is a valence-reducing morpheme that turnstransitive verbs into reciprocal verbs; -e and -oo mark predicates with an inherentreciprocal meaning and do not operate on the verbs’ argument structure.
