Datapoint Angolar/Subject relative clauses

Angolar is probably unique among creole languages in having a relative pronoun ki fulfilling the function of the subject in the relative clause, and another pronoun ma which is used with all other syntactic functions.
This distinction is also maintained in case of possessor function. See examples of ma in Feature 93 "Direct object relative clauses".
