There is not necessarily an >"agent" to any bridi, the agent need not be in the first terbridi. Well there is some looseness to lujvo semantics. But in any case, I think that sevzi-broda implies some kind of reflecive on the x1 place while sevzi-se-broda would imply one on the x2 place etc. It is not a question of agenthood, but of pointing out the place to reflex. lojbab
