Center-embedded clauses cannot have trailing adjuncts, and so we give up the [[Embedding Property]]. They are generated on the right periphery of clausal arguments. (I.e. in {{T|sá poq po kúe, ꝡë hao hóa}}, the relative clause is neither a constituent of the {{T|poq}} DP nor the {{T|kúe}} DP, but rather something that sits off to the side, as if it has undergone a minimal amount of extraposition.) The word {{T|có}} must be overt whenever it follows a center-embedded clause, almost as if it's a terminator. This is necessary in order to disambiguate between {{T|Aojaı póq, ꝡë cho hó sío, có, ꝡä hao júna, ꝡä luq tú}} and {{T|Aojaı póq, ꝡë cho hó sío, ꝡä hao júna, có, ꝡä luq tú}}. | Center-embedded clauses cannot have trailing adjuncts, and so we give up the [[Embedding Property]].
