each other

each other pron. (also (Scottish) †each others) used as a reciprocal pronoun (as object and in the genitive) = one another. In later use also (colloquial) as subject, e.g. we know what each other are doing.Some commentators on usage restrict each other to two parties and one another to more than two, but such a distinction is seldom found in actual use.
