+--1 Finnish Lexical Paradigms
+--
+-- Aarne Ranta 2003
+--
+-- This is an API to the user of the resource grammar 
+-- for adding lexical items. It give shortcuts for forming
+-- expressions of basic categories: nouns, adjectives, verbs.
+-- 
+-- Closed categories (determiners, pronouns, conjunctions) are
+-- accessed through the resource syntax API, $resource.Abs.gf$. 
+--
+-- The main difference with $morpho.Fin.gf$ is that the types
+-- referred to are compiled resource grammar types. We have moreover
+-- had the design principle of always having existing forms as string
+-- arguments of the paradigms, not stems.
+--
+-- This is the path to read the grammar from the same directory.
+--# -path=.:../abstract:../../prelude
+--
+-- The following modules are presupposed:
+
+resource ParadigmsFin = open (Predef=Predef), Prelude, SyntaxFin, Finnish in {

+--2 Parameters 
+--
+-- To abstract over gender, number, and (some) case names, 
+-- we define the following identifiers.

+--2 Nouns
+
+-- Worst case: give ten forms and the semantic gender.
+-- In practice just a couple of forms are needed, to define the different
+-- stems, vowel alternation, and vowel harmony.
+
+oper
+  mkN : (talo,talon,talona,taloa,taloon,taloina,taloissa,talojen,taloja,taloihin 
+          : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- Nouns with partitive "a"/"ä" are a large group. 
+-- To determine for grade and vowel alternation, three forms are usually needed:
+-- singular nominative and genitive, and plural partitive.
+-- Examples: "talo", "kukko", "huippu", "koira", "kukka", "syylä", "särki"...
+
+  nKukko : (kukko,kukon,kukkoja : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- A special case are nouns with no alternations: 
+-- the vowel harmony is inferred from the last letter,
+-- which must be one of "o", "u", "ö", "y".
+
+  nTalo : (talo : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- Foreign words ending in consonants are actually similar to words like
+-- "malli"/"mallin"/"malleja", with the exception that the "i" is not attached
+-- to the singular nominative. Examples: "linux", "savett", "screen".
+-- The singular partitive form is used to get the vowel harmony. (N.B. more than 
+-- 1-syllabic words ending in "n" would have variant plural genitive and 
+-- partitive forms, like "sultanien"/"sultaneiden", which are not covered.)
+
+  nLinux : (linuxia : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- Nouns of at least 3 syllables ending with "a" or "ä", like "peruna", "tavara",
+-- "rytinä".
+
+  nPeruna : (peruna : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- The following paradigm covers both nouns ending in an aspirated "e", such as
+-- "rae", "perhe", "savuke", and also many ones ending in a consonant
+-- ("rengas", "kätkyt"). The singular nominative and essive are given.
+
+  nRae : (rae, rakeena : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- The following covers nouns with partitive "ta"/"tä", such as
+-- "susi", "vesi", "pieni". To get all stems and the vowel harmony, it takes
+-- the singular nominative, genitive, and essive.
+
+  nSusi : (susi,suden,sutta : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- Nouns ending with a long vowel, such as "puu", "pää", "pii", "leikkuu",
+-- are inflected according to the following.
+
+  nPuu : (puu : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- One-syllable diphthong nouns, such as "suo", "tie", "työ", are inflected by
+-- the following.
+
+  nSuo : (suo : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- Many adjectives but also nouns have the nominative ending "nen" which in other
+-- cases becomes "s": "nainen", "ihminen", "keltainen". 
+-- To capture the vowel harmony, we use the partitive form as the argument.
+
+  nNainen : (naista : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- The following covers some nouns ending with a consonant, e.g.
+-- "tilaus", "kaulin", "paimen", "laidun".
+
+  nTilaus : (tilaus,tilauksena : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- The following covers nouns like "nauris" and adjectives like "kallis", "tyyris".
+-- The partitive form is taken to get the vowel harmony.
+
+  nNauris : (naurista : Str) -> Gender -> N ;
+
+-- Separately-written compound nouns, like "sambal oelek", "Urho Kekkonen",
+-- have only their last part inflected.
+
+  nComp : Str -> N -> N ;
+
+-- Nouns used as functions need a case, of which by far the commonest is
+-- the genitive.
+
+  mkFun  : N -> Case -> Fun ;
+  fGen : N -> Fun ;
+
+-- Proper names can be formed by using declensions for nouns.
+
+  mkPN : N -> PN ;
+
+
+--2 Adjectives
+
+-- Non-comparison one-place adjectives are just like nouns.
+
+  mkAdj1 : N -> Adj1 ;
+
+-- Two-place adjectives need a case for the second argument.
+
+  mkAdj2 : N -> Case -> Adj2 ;
+
+-- Comparison adjectives have three forms. The comparative and the superlative
+-- are always inflected in the same way, so the nominative of them is actually
+-- enough (except for the superlative "paras" of "hyvä").
+
+  mkAdjDeg : (kiva : N) -> (kivempaa,kivinta : Str) -> AdjDeg ;
+
+
+--2 Verbs
+--
+-- The fragment only has present tense so far, but in all persons.
+-- The worst case needs five forms, as shown in the following.
+
+  mkV   : (tulla,tulen,tulee,tulevat,tulkaa,tullaan : Str) -> V ;
+
+-- A simple special case is the one with just one stem and no grade alternation.
+-- It covers e.g. "sanoa", "valua", "kysyä".
+
+  vValua : (valua : Str) -> V ;
+
+-- With two forms, the following function covers a variety of verbs, such as
+-- "ottaa", "käyttää", "löytää", "huoltaa", "hiihtää", "siirtää".
+
+  vKattaa : (kattaa, katan : Str) -> V ;
+
+-- When grade alternation is not present, just a one-form special case is needed
+-- ("poistaa", "ryystää").
+
+  vOstaa : (ostaa : Str) -> V ;
+
+-- The following covers 
+-- "juosta", "piestä", "nousta", "rangaista", "kävellä", "surra", "panna".
+
+  vNousta : (nousta, nousen : Str) -> V ;
+
+-- This is for one-syllable diphthong verbs like "juoda", "syödä".
+
+  vTuoda : (tuoda : Str) -> V ;
+
+-- The verbs "be" and the negative auxiliary are special.
+
+  vOlla : V ;
+  vEi   : V ;
+
+-- Two-place verbs need a case, and can have a pre- or postposition.
+-- At least one of the latter is empty, $[]$.
+
+  mkTV : V -> Case -> (prep,postp : Str) -> TV ;
+
+-- If both are empty, the following special function can be used.
+
+  tvCase : V -> Case -> TV ;
+
+-- Verbs with a direct (accusative) object
+-- are special, since their complement case is finally decided in syntax.
+
+  tvDir : V -> TV ;

+-- The definitions should not bother the user of the API. So they are
+-- hidden from the document.
