Four constructions convey restriction:
1. Negation and exception: mā/lā/in and similar markers with illā.
2. Innamā: a conventional restricting construction.
3. Coordination: especially lā, bal, and lākin.
4. Fronting what normally comes later: moving a constituent forward to highlight its exclusive relevance.
These methods do not have identical syntactic effects or rhetorical force in every context. Their use depends on the listener's assumptions, which clause is negated or affirmed, and the surrounding context.
