I forgot to mention that when the Italian reflexive is used as a passive (as in "si incanta") it is called si passivante. This construction can only be used with the reflexive "si". Examples: "Si vendono molti pesci" : Many fishes are sold. "Qui si parla Inglese": English is spoken here. "La mostra s'inaugurer`a il mese prossimo" : The exhibition will be inaugurated next month.
