Relative Clauses and the Passive in Balochi

Résumé

This talk presents patterns of relative clauses and the passive. The existence of a passive is typologically noteworthy for a language with ergative structures. It has to be admitted that it is rarely used, though, and particularly rare with an explicit agent. Relative clauses, while very common cross-linguistically, is less common than might thin, particularly in oral style. The existing instances are frequently of the correlative type (Which book I read, it is interesting) while postposed ones somewhat less so and embedded ones even less. In dialects and styles less influenced by Persian, speakers prefer a chain of main clauses.
