A reciprocal property is one that is linked to a similar property in another type. When information for one of those properties is entered for a Freebase topic, that topic is automatically linked as an entry for the reciprocal property. For example, if the Films Directed property in the Film Director type is linked to the Film Director property in the Film type, then entering a director's name for the Film Director property in a Film topic will cause the film’s name to be entered in the Films Directed property for that director's topic.
