<div class="gmail_quote">Voragh:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">To get the discussion started, here are the examples I have with {-&#39;e&#39;} used (or not used!) as a disambiguator in relative clauses:<br>

<br>
loghDaq Suvrupbogh SuvwI&#39;pu&#39; chaH Hoch SuvwI&#39;pu&#39;&#39;e&#39;<br>
In space, all warriors are cold warriors (&quot;warriors who are ready to fight&quot;). TKW<br>
<br>
butlh ghajbogh nuv<b>&#39;e&#39;</b> yIHo&#39;<br>
Admire the person with dirt under his fingernails.TKW<br>
<br>
nobmey qembogh yIrIDnganpu&#39;<b>&#39;e&#39;</b> yIvoqQo&#39;<br>
Don&#39;t trust Yridians who bring gifts. TKW<br>
<br>
Huch nobHa&#39;bogh verenganpu&#39;<b>&#39;e&#39;</b> yIvoqQo&#39;<br>
Don&#39;t trust Ferengi who give back money. TKW<br>
<br>
tajwIj &#39;oHbe&#39; chorlIj jeqbogh Dochvetlh<b>&#39;e&#39;</b><br>
That is not my dagger protruding from your midsection. FTG<br>
<br>
yIntaHvIS qeylIS<b>&#39;e&#39;</b> lIjlaHbe&#39;bogh vay&#39; batlh &#39;etlhvam chenmoHlu&#39;pu&#39;<br>
this sword of honor descends from the time of Kahless the Unforgettable. S8<br>
<br>
qorDu&#39;Daj tuq &#39;oS Ha&#39;quj<b>&#39;e&#39;</b> tuQbogh wo&#39;rIv<br>
The sash that Worf wears is a symbol of his family&#39;s house. S20</blockquote><div><br></div><div>It seems that in every example you posted, &lt;-&#39;e&#39;&gt; acted as the disambiguator in a relative clause.  The only one of your sentences without it is the first one, where &lt;Suv&gt; in &lt;Suvrupbogh SuvwI&#39;pu&#39;&gt; has no object.</div>
