Deponents can be interesting.

Yes. Deponents which are passive in form but active in meaning, but active in meaning. I've always found the nexus of medio-passive, reflexive, and stative verbs intriguing.

(The middle participle, still active in Greek, (cf. -menos as in hapax legomenon), has become fossilized in Latin climen, crimen, foemina, limen, omen, etc. )

[Corrected silly mistake.]
