Verbs in relative clauses may be placed anywhere within the relative clause, subject to the constraint that the verb and (syntactic) subject may not be separated unless the subject of the relative clause is the head. If the subject is the head, the relativizer ''ri'' may be omitted, however in that case the verb must immediately follow the head.

Nominalized relative clauses use ''~~nór ri~~...'' 'those who...'
