Example

• (shn) ၽူၼ်တေမႃးဝႃႇ → (tha) ว่าฝนจะมา ("Rain will come (they said)")

  (shn) ၽူၼ်<n> တေ<vaux> မႃး<vblex> ဝႃႇ<comp> → (tha) ว่า<comp> ฝน<n> จะ<vaux> มา<vblex>

We were able to add a rule so that this sentence now translates into Thai with the complementizer at the beginning.

Output of lex mode: ^ၽူၼ်<n>/ฝน<n>$^တေ<vaux>/จะ<vaux>$^မႃး<vblex>/มา<vblex>$^ဝႃႇ<comp>/ว่า<comp>$ .

Output of transfer mode:

^default<Comp>{
       ^default{
               ^default<NP>{
                       ^ၽူၼ်<n>/ฝน<n>$
               }$
               ^default<VP>{
                       ^တေ<vaux>/จะ<vaux>$
                       ^မႃး<vblex>/มา<vblex>$
               }$
       }$
       ^ဝႃႇ<comp>/ว่า<comp>$
}$
.   

Output of translation pair: ว่า#ฝนจะมา .
