A relative clause is a noun phrase. It stands in for a noun. Work out 
what constitutes the clause, then you'll have your answer.

Is the clause *nuj 'elHa'bogh Hoch*/everything which un-enters the 
mouth; the mouth which everything un-enters/ or *nuj 'elHa'bogh Hoch 
mung'e'*/each origin which un-enters the mouth/? In this sentence, it 
could be either.
