Subordinators introduce subclauses (exx. 1-2) including relative clauses that are introduced by ī or kē (ex. 3). Only relative clauses without specific reference (‘free’ relative clauses) are assumed to be introduced by relative pronouns, which are probably the interrogative pronouns, which are identical in form (ex. 4).
