<h1> Common: Structures with Common Implementations.</h1>

This module defines the abstract parameters of tense, polarity, and
|
||||
anteriority, which are used in [``Phrase`` Phrase.html] to generate different
|
||||
forms of sentences. Together they give 4 x 2 x 2 = 16 sentence forms.
|
||||
These tenses are defined for all languages in the library. More tenses
|
||||
can be defined in the language extensions, e.g. the <i>passe simple</i> of
|
||||
Romance languages in [``ExtraRomance`` ../romance/ExtraRomance.gf].
