 The forest, which the lizard bit it in, is small.
-====Internal Heads====
-It must be noted that Kämpya restrictive relative clauses are strictly speaking internally headed [http://wals.info/chapter/90]. We can only see this in antipassives and applicatives where the noun (that used to be in the absolutive case) is re-introduced as a dative argument, it follows the head noun e.g.
-/θú=bíʔ ˈlḭ̂zàd dô̰k=àuŋ áˈwâḭ/
-ANTIP=bite lizard dog=DAT flee
-The lizard that had bitten the dog fled. (not */θú=bíʔ dô̰g=àuŋ ˈlḭ̂zàd áˈwâḭ/)
-Or in an applicative construction:
-/ˈlḭ̂zàd=zù bíʔ=kà pʰò̤wè dô̰k=àuŋ m̥ôṵ/
-lizard=ERG bite=LOC forest dog=DAT small
-The forest that the lizard bit the dog in is small. (not */ˈlḭ̂zàd=zù bíʔ=kà dô̰g=àuŋ pʰò̤wè m̥ôṵ/)
