 There are no proper relative pronouns in Aoma so other ways of joining clauses are in use. The word order can be changed into VOS to separate the referent, demonstrative pronouns are added or clauses are expressed with participles:
-Intransitive verb, relative clause object → using demonstrative pronouns: "The man, whom I saw yesterday, will come tomorrow."
+Intransitive verb, relative clause object → using demonstrative pronouns:
