how would one analyze each other in a tree analysis either PreM = each, and H = other or

Narppi Hello how would one analyze each other in a tree analysis either PreM = each, and H = other orit's just an expression? Thank you Hi, 'Each other' is a pronoun in the objective case and, in my opinion, the whole expression does the same job as other pronouns in the objective case. I wouldn't parse the phrase and divide 'each' as a premodifier and 'other' as a head word.
