       You probably know that "each other" is two words — not one — but did you know there's an old rule about when to use "each other" and when to use "one another"?  https://www.quickanddirtytips.com/articles/each-other-versus-one-another/

       @grammargirl The distinction between these is something I hadn't thought about before!Side note: I don't know why it says Spanish doesn't have this reciprocal pronoun. Yes, you can use a reflexive pronoun for the purpose as it said, but there's also "uno al otro" which is the same as "each other".

       @grammargirl I can’t think of a circumstance where “each other” couldn’t be replaced by “one another”. Although, intuitively, I know there’s a difference.
