acl: clausal modifier of noun

Clausal modifiers of nouns, with the bare acl relation, do not have relative pronouns dependent to them (those take the deprel acl:relcl). The head is the noun being modified, and the dependent is the head of the clausal modifier, which is usually the main verb.

Clausal modifiers can take some arguments, but the subject can never take the ergative case, instead a passive agentive case marker like ਵੱਲੋਂ vallõ.

With case markers and postpositions

The postposition ਵਾਲਾ vālā marks such clausal modifiers, with a habitual connotation, as well.

Other cases can also be used. For example, the genitive with topic/information content of the head nominal.
