英语语法现在分词作定语时能不能和一个非限制性定语从句转化（或者说就是现在分词作定语时和修饰词能不能分开）,有没有这种用法

分词短语作非限制性定语,相当于一个非限制性定语从句,用逗号隔开,译成并列的句子
you either starve to death or live like Robinson Crusoe,waiting for a boat which never comes
waiting.修饰Robinson Crusoe
相当于定语从句：
you either starve to death or live like Robinson Crusoe who is waiting for a boat which never comes

是的，
这句话可以改写成you either starve to death or live like Robinson Crusoe who waits for a boat which never comes
