Although the relative clause in (46) contains an
enclitic (-neuh '2r'), nyang is not obligatory. This is
because the enclitic is not coreferential with the head NP
ureueng 'person.'
46. Ureueng (nyang) rhah bajee-neuh ka geu-woe.
Person who wash shirt-2r PERF 3r-go-home

nvang is also obligatory in constructions where
coreferential NP in relative clause is subject possessor and
a posessor copy in the form of an enclitic is present in the
relative clause (cf. English whose). This is understandable
because the enclitic is coreferential with the head NP. In
(47b), the possessor copy is -qeuh '3r.'
