Relativizer typology
There are two separate phrasal heads that relativizers can occupy. Cross-linguistically, relativizers may occupy either the head of a complementizer phrase (C-Type Relativizer) or the head of a determiner phrase (D-Type Relativizer). C-Type Relativizers can introduce a relative clause as an argument of a noun phrase, or they can introduce a relative clause as an argument of a verb phrase. D-Type Relativizers may only introduce a relative clause as an argument of a noun phrase. English is a language which uses a C-Type Relativizer, that, as a part of its relativization strategy. Conversely, Arabic uses two phonologically distinct morphemes to account for these syntactic phenomena. The following examples from Lebanese Arabic, along with their respective English translations illustrate this:

Relative clause as an argument of a noun phrase:
 * (*1-)paris lli bħibba
 * the-Paris RM I.love.it
 * The Paris that I love

Relative clause as an argument of a verb phrase: Aidanpine (talk) 21:18, 20 October 2013 (UTC)
 * xabbaret-na laila ʔenno l-mmaslin mʔadrabiin
 * told-us laila that the-actors on.strike
 * Laila told us that the actors are on strike.
