Summary/Abstract: In the present article, the discussion is focused on the Russian reflexive verbs with the -ся morpheme. In some of these verbs, there is a contradiction between the form and semantic: on the one hand, not all of the reflexive verbs have reflexive meaning: on the other hand, several verbs express this meaning without the -ся morpheme. The author intends to demonstrate that in Russian language the reflexive meaning can be expressed not only by means of morphology.
