In Hungarian, the head noun of the relative clause is outside the subordination (1‒2), but sometimes it can be imbedded in the relative clause (Haader 2000a: 498‒502, Kenesei et al. 1998: 40‒41, É. Kiss 2003: 145‒157). If the construction has more arguments, it is more likely that the subordinate clause is introduced by a relative pronoun.
