For those who haven't seen it, a "faster" example from the {paq'batlh}:
nom leng Hun nom lengqu' lut
Stories travel faster than a *khrun* (PB)

With that in mind, there is this sequence from qepHom 2012:
nom leng DujlIj
Your ship travels fast. (qepHom 2012)
nom leng Duj Daghajbogh
The ship that you have travels fast. (qepHom 2012)
tInqu' nom lengbogh DujlIj
Your fast ship is very big.
("Your ship that travels fast is very big") (qepHom 2012)
nom lengbogh DujlIj vIlegh
I see your fast ship.
("I see your ship that travels fast") (qepHom 2012)
