Thank you for quick and valuable answer, I'll use the term "conversive antonym" for that semantic relation

But as a special kind of antonyms they can be called conversive antonyms, see for ex. http://120.118.183.1/aseip_folder/tempdir/ppt647518.ppt This term is not so much mentioned in the English part of the Internet, but it is quite customary in Russian semantics ("konversivy") where it goes back to works of the 1970s by Igor Mel'čuk and Yuri Apresyan.

Examples: - give and get - send and receive - like (English) and нравиться (Russian) Please tell me if you know (or create one?)
