klingon_grammar1-9  Exercise 3: Relative Clauses
================================================

  chuS Saj ngevbogh ghot'e'
      "The person who sells the pet is noisy."

  chuS Saj'e' ngevbogh ghot
      "The pet that the person sells is noisy."

What is different:

  Both sentences use the same four words (chuS, Saj, ngev, ghot) and the
  same relative clause "Saj ngevbogh ghot" (object Saj, verb ngev-bogh,
  subject ghot). The only change is which noun carries the suffix -'e', the
  marker of the head noun, the one being described and the one that is
  "noisy":

    - in the first, ghot'e' is the head, so the person is noisy;
    - in the second, Saj'e' is the head, so the pet is noisy.

English shows the same difference with who/that and with the order of the
words. Klingon needs only the suffix.
