B-Greekers:

I'm embarassed to ask such an elementary question, but today while I was
explaining deponent forms of verbs, a student asked me how that if one
wanted to state something in the passive voice with a verb that is deponent,
how would it be written? For example, ASPAZOMAI is deponent, how would one
write, "I am greeted?" Anyone care to answer such a elementary question
whose answer seems to elude me?
