Kalenjin kee(y) is typically treated as an arity-reducing verbal suffix with reflexive(and reciprocal) meaning. However, we show that it is actually a separate word witha typologically unusual combination of two functions: it can be the object of a verbor preposition (contributing an arity-reducing ‘middle’ meaning that is broaderthan just reflexive and reciprocal) or it can modify pronouns (with an intensifyingmeaning).
