Raul, Thanks very much for that fine explanation. I had been thrown off by your use of ~ as reflexive, not passive.
I was also surprised that ;: does not work directly, and that is apparently what made your verb necessary first. Below is an ascii rendition of words in Dissect. It did not inform me and confused me because reflexive does not appear anywhere, and because |. appears in the lower right corner of the window. I apologize for the crude rendering, but I thought such was superior to posting an image link. It was accomplished using the online app at http://asciiflow.com/.
