     I do not think this will well serve the original intent of creating a
relative clause. How would this work to say, "The child who hit the officer
is my son,"? Instead, I again point to Captain Krankor's example and suggest:

yaS qIppu'bogh puq'e' puqloDwI' ghaHneS.

     The neS adds a little bit of the old "That's my BOY!" pride to it.
