お互いに
解説 Definition
「each other」は二人以上の人や物事が互いに同じ行動をする様子を表す。相互作用や協力、感情の交換を強調したいときに使われ、副詞的表現「お互いに」に近いニュアンス。友人関係や家族、チームでのやりとりによく出てくる。
Each other means one person does something to another person, and the second person does the same in return. It is used for mutual actions or feelings between two or more people.
覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
このエントリは、each other の基本義「互いを」とは別に、行為の向きや態度が双方向であることを副詞的に表す「お互いに」として覚えます。help each other, be kind to each other, talk to each other のように、動詞句全体が「一方通行ではなく双方に向かう」場面で使われます。単なる together「一緒に」ではなく、相手への働きかけがある点を意識すると区別しやすいです。
Split it into `each` and `other`: each person does something to the other person. That helps you remember the two-way feeling. Learn it with common pairs like `help each other` or `talk to each other`.

互いを
(意味 2)解説 Definition
二人以上の人や物が、相手を行為や感情の対象にすることを表す代名詞的な表現。love, know, see, help などの動詞の後や、with, to などの前置詞の後に置き、関係や動作が双方向であることを示す。
"Each other" is a pronoun-like expression used for two or more people or things when the action, feeling, or relationship goes both ways. It shows that every person is acting toward the others or feeling something toward them, as in verbs like love, know, see, and help. It can also come after prepositions such as with and to. Use it when the meaning is mutual, not one-way.
覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
each other は each「それぞれ」と other「相手」が組み合わさり、二人以上が同じ行為を相互に向けることを表します。love, help, know, look at each other のように動詞の後に置くのが典型です。one another も似ますが、each other は二者の互いにをより身近に示すと覚えると使いやすいです。
Parlance comes from the verb parler, meaning "to speak," so it is easy to remember it as "the kind of language spoken in a certain world." It often appears with a field name, as in in legal parlance or in medical parlance, meaning "in legal language" or "in medical language." Term is one word, terminology is a whole set of technical words, and parlance is a slightly formal way to talk about the naming style used in a field.
例文

each other の語源・成り立ち Etymology
eachは古英語ǣlc（それぞれの）で、ā（常に）+ge-līc（同様の）の合成語。otherは古英語ōþer（もう一方）。関連語：every（ǣlcの変形）、otherwise。「常に同じようなもの同士」が互いを指す表現に発展した。
Each comes from Old English ǣlc, a word meaning every single one, and other comes from Old English ōþer, meaning the second or another one. When they were joined, the phrase each other expressed a mutual relationship between two or more people. Over time, it became the common English way to show that an action goes both ways. A related word is every, which developed from the same old base as each.
