Content clause
A content clause is a subclause that acts like a noun phrase.
For example, the phrases in bold here are content clauses:
- It's good that you're here.
- I hope it won't rain.
- That she apologized doesn't change anything.
In Toaq, a simple content clause is made using 
.
Placing on a verb starts a content clause, which lasts until the end of the clause it's in, or until the terminator cy.
Zảı jí jîa bủ rủqshua da.
I hope that it won't rain.
Cả shêokuq nháo cy sıa sủao da.
That she apologized [END] causes nothing important.
A content clause can also be made using the complementizer lâ, in which case it can contain a prenex:
Zảı jí lâ pátı bı, bủ rủqshua da.
I hope that as for the party, it doesn't rain.
Interrogative content clauses
The above content clauses are all declarative content clauses. There are also interrogative content clauses — better known as indirect questions.
- I know what you did last night.
- I wonder whether it will rain.
In Toaq, these are clauses containing a question word. See the main article for more information.
