Example (2c) uses the same sentence as (2b) but with an additional relative clause. The discontinuous clitic (''-n'') is used to mark that the noun ''djá'ukuh'' takes an associate role in the second relative clause '''', while the ''kjĩ'ĩ'' remains marking the noun as the initiator in the first relative clause ''rlòxnj''. | |||
