<h3>Restrictive / Non-Restrictive Modifiers</h3>
When verbs / adjectives are used as modifiers, the dependent form is used when the modifier
is restrictive ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restrictiveness ), and the
independent form is used when the modifier is non-restrictive e.g. from the work teyláae
/teil&#603;&#740;&#720;/ - shirt, we can say:
teyláae `ròedla /teil&#603;&#720;&#740; &#689;&#641;&#600;&#689;d&#622;a/ – a red shirt
(restrictive)
teyláae `ròedù /teil&#603;&#720;&#740; &#689;&#641;&#600;&#689;du&#689;/ – the red shirt
(non-restrictive)
