Relative clauses in Kyirong Tibetan
Relative clauses in Central Tibetan dialects have been described in detail by Mazaudon 1977 and very recently by DeLancey 1999 for Lhasa Tibetan, and by Kim 1989 for Shigatse Tibetan.

description | Relative clauses in Central Tibetan dialects have been described in detail by Mazaudon 1977 and very recently by DeLancey 1999 for Lhasa Tibetan, and by Kim 1989 for Shigatse Tibetan. The three studies agree on several points: first, that relative clauses in these dia¬lects are constructed with a set of nominalizers differing from dialect to dialect. And, second, that there are several syntactic ways of con¬structing relative clauses. In each of the cases, the rules determining the choice of the nominalizers turned out to be very complex. |
