+-- However, for the purpose of documentation, we make here explicit the
+-- linearization types of each category, so that their structures and
+-- dependencies can be seen.
+-- Another substantial part are the linearization rules of some
+-- structural words.
+--
+-- The users of the resource grammar should not look at this file for the

+-- They should use $resource.Abs.gf$ to access the syntactic rules.
+-- This file can be consulted in those, hopefully rare, occasions in which
+-- one has to know how the syntactic categories are
+-- implemented. The parameter types are defined in $types.Fin.gf$.

+--
+-- A subtle reason forces us to distinguish the parameters of common noun phrases
+-- from those of morphological common nouns: the parameter value $NPossNom$ is
+-- syntactically applicable to each of $Sg Nom$, $Pl Nom$, $Sg Gen$. In morphology,
+-- these forms are always the same ("autoni"), but with complex common nouns, we

+-- The order of the adjective and its argument depends on the case: the local

+
+--2 Function expressions
+
+-- A function expression is a common noun together with the
+-- case taken by its argument ("x'n vaimo").

+-- is then needed with pronominal arguments.
+
+  Function = CommNounPhrase ** {c : NPForm} ;
+
+-- The application of a function gives, in the first place, a common noun:
+-- "Jussi vaimo/vaimot". From this, other rules of the resource grammar 
+-- give noun phrases, such as "Jussi vaimo", "Jussin vaimot",
+-- "Jussin ja Marin äidit", and "Jussin ja Marin äiti" (the
+-- latter two corresponding to distributive and collective functions,
+-- respectively). Semantics will eventually tell when each
+-- of the readings is meaningful.

+
+-- Notice the switched word order in other cases than the genitive, e.g.

+-- often existential or indexical.

+--2 Verbs
+--
+--3 Verb phrases
+--
+-- Verb phrases are discontinuous: the two parts of a verb phrase are

+
+-- A simple verb can be made into a verb phrase with an empty complement, e.g.
+-- "ui" - [].
+-- There are two versions, depending on if we want to negate the verb.
+-- In the negated form, the negative verb "ei" becomes the verb, and the
+-- complement is a special infinite form of the verb (usually similar to the
+-- 2nd person singular imperative): "ei" - "ui".

+-- N.B. negation is *not* a function applicable to a verb phrase, since
+-- double negations with "ei" are not grammatical.

+
+
+--2 Interrogative pronouns
+--
+-- If relative pronouns are like common nouns (and adjectives), 
+-- interrogative pronouns are like noun phrases, having a fixed number.
+-- They also need to handle an NP-like accusative case. But person is
+-- not needed, since it is uniformly $NP3$.
+
+  IntPron : Type = {s : NPForm => Str ; n : Number} ; 
+
+-- In analogy with relative pronouns, we have a rule for applying a function
+-- to a relative pronoun to create a new one.

+                vaimo.s ! False ! kuka.n ! npForm2Case kuka.n c ;
+     n = kuka.n
+    } ;
+
+-- There is a variety of simple interrogative pronouns:
+-- "mikä talo" / "kuka mies", "kuka", "mikä". The construction with a noun
+-- is the reason why nouns in Finnish need a gender.
+
+  nounIntPron : Number -> CommNounPhrase -> IntPron = \n, talo ->
+    {s = \\c => let {nc = npForm2Case n c} in 
+                mikakukaInt ! talo.g ! n ! nc ++ talo.s ! False ! n ! nc ;
+     n = n
+    } ; 
+
+  intPronWho : Number -> IntPron = \num -> {
+    s = \\c => mikakukaInt ! Human ! num ! (npForm2Case num c) ;
+    n = num

+
+  intPronWhat : Number -> IntPron = \num -> {
+    s = \\c => mikakukaInt ! NonHuman ! num ! (npForm2Case num c) ;
+    n = num
+  } ;
+
+
+--2 Utterances
+
+-- By utterances we mean complete phrases, such as 
+-- 'can be used as moves in a language game': indicatives, questions, imperative,
+-- and one-word utterances. The rules are far from complete.
+--
+-- N.B. we have not included rules for texts, which we find we cannot say much
+-- about on this level. In semantically rich GF grammars, texts, dialogues, etc, 
+-- will of course play an important role as categories not reducible to utterances.
+-- An example is proof texts, whose semantics show a dependence between premises
+-- and conclusions. Another example is intersentential anaphora.
+
+  Utterance = SS ;
+  
+  indicUtt : Sentence -> Utterance = \x -> ss (x.s ++ stopPunct) ;
+  interrogUtt : Question -> Utterance = \x -> ss (x.s ++ questPunct) ;
+
+
+--2 Questions
+--
+-- Questions are either direct or indirect, but the forms in Finnish are
+-- always identical. So we don't need a $QuestForm$ parameter as in other languages.
+
+oper
+  Question = SS ;
+
+--3 Yes-no questions 
+--
+-- Yes-no questions are formed by inversed predication, with the clitic "ko" / "kö"
+-- particle attached to the verb part of the verb phrase.
+
+  questVerbPhrase : NounPhrase -> VerbPhrase -> Question = \jussi,ui ->
+    let {np = Ind jussi.n (np2Person jussi.p)} in
+    ss (ui.s ! np ++ koPart ++ jussi.s ! NPCase Nom ++ ui.s2 ! np) ;
+
+
+--3 Wh-questions
+--
+-- Wh-questions are of two kinds: ones that are like $NP - VP$ sentences
+-- ("kuka ui?") others that are line $S/NP - NP$ sentences ("kenet sinä tapaat?").
+
+  intVerbPhrase : IntPron -> VerbPhrase -> Question = \kuka,ui ->
+    predVerbPhrase (kuka ** {p = NP3}) ui ;
+
+  intSlash : IntPron -> SentenceSlashNounPhrase -> Question = \kuka,tapaat ->
+    ss (kuka.s ! NPCase tapaat.c ++ tapaat.s2 ++ tapaat.s) ;
+
+
+--3 Interrogative adverbials
+--
+-- These adverbials will be defined in the lexicon: they include
+-- "koska", "missä", "kuinka", "miksi", etc, which are all invariant one-word
+-- expressions. In addition, they can be formed by adding cases and postpositions
+-- to interrogative pronouns, in the same way as adverbials are formed
+-- from noun phrases; notice that even prepositions are used as postpositions
+-- when attached to interrogative pronouns.
+
+  IntAdverb = SS ;
+
+  prepIntAdverb : Str -> Case -> IntPron -> IntAdverb = \ennen,c,kuka ->
+    ss (kuka.s ! NPCase c ++ ennen) ;
+
+-- A question adverbial can be applied to anything, and whether this makes
+-- sense is a semantic question. The syntax is very simple: just prefix the
+-- adverbial to the predication.
+
+  questAdverbial : IntAdverb -> NounPhrase -> VerbPhrase -> Question = 
+    \miksi, jussi, ui ->
+    cc2 miksi (predVerbPhrase jussi ui) ;
+
+--2 Imperatives
+--
+-- We only consider second-person imperatives. 
+
+  Imperative = SS1 Number ;
+
+  imperVerbPhrase : VerbPhrase -> Imperative = \ui -> 
+    {s = \\n => ui.s ! Imper n ++ ui.s2 ! Imper n} ;
+
+  imperUtterance : Number -> Imperative -> Utterance = \n,I ->
+    ss (I.s ! n ++ exclPunct) ;
+
+--2 Sentence adverbials
+--
+-- This class covers adverbials such as "muuten", "siksi", which are prefixed
+-- to a sentence to form a phrase.
+
+  advSentence : Adverb -> Sentence -> Utterance = \siksi,sataa ->
+    ss (siksi.s ++ sataa.s ++ ".") ;
+
+
+--2 Coordination
+--
+-- Coordination is to some extent orthogonal to the rest of syntax, and
+-- has been treated in a generic way in the module $CO$ in the file
+-- $coordination.gf$. The overall structure is independent of category,
+-- but there can be differences in parameter dependencies.
+--
+--3 Conjunctions
+--
+-- Coordinated phrases are built by using conjunctions, which are either
+-- simple ("ja", "tai") or distributed ("sekä - että", "joko - tai").
+--
+-- The conjunction has an inherent number, which is used when conjoining
+-- noun phrases: "Jussi ja Mari ovat..." vs. "Jussi tai Mari on..."; in the
+-- case of "tai", the result is however plural if any of the disjuncts is.
+
+  Conjunction = CO.Conjunction ** {n : Number} ;
+  ConjunctionDistr = CO.ConjunctionDistr ** {n : Number} ;
+
+--3 Coordinating sentences
+--
+-- We need a category of lists of sentences. It is a discontinuous
+-- category, the parts corresponding to 'init' and 'last' segments
+-- (rather than 'head' and 'tail', because we have to keep track of the slot between
+-- the last two elements of the list). A list has at least two elements.
+
+  ListSentence : Type = SD2 ;
+
+  twoSentence : (_,_ : Sentence) -> ListSentence = CO.twoSS ;
+
+  consSentence : ListSentence -> Sentence -> ListSentence =
+    CO.consSS CO.comma ;
+
+-- To coordinate a list of sentences by a simple conjunction, we place
+-- it between the last two elements; commas are put in the other slots,
+-- e.g. "du rauchst, er trinkt und ich esse".
+
+  conjunctSentence : Conjunction -> ListSentence -> Sentence = \c,xs ->
+    ss (CO.conjunctX c xs) ;
+
+-- To coordinate a list of sentences by a distributed conjunction, we place
+-- the first part (e.g. "either") in front of the first element, the second
+-- part ("or") between the last two elements, and commas in the other slots.
+-- For sentences this is really not used.
+
+  conjunctDistrSentence : ConjunctionDistr -> ListSentence -> Sentence = 
+    \c,xs ->
+    ss (CO.conjunctDistrX c xs) ;
+
+
+--3 Coordinating adjective phrases

+
+  ListAdjPhrase : Type =

+    CO.conjunctDistrTable3 AdjPos Number Case c xs ;
+
+
+--3 Coordinating noun phrases
+--
+-- The structure is the same as for sentences. The result is either always plural
+-- or plural if any of the components is, depending on the conjunction.
+
+  ListNounPhrase : Type = {s1,s2 : NPForm => Str ; n : Number ; p : NPPerson} ;
+
+  twoNounPhrase : (_,_ : NounPhrase) -> ListNounPhrase = \x,y ->
+    CO.twoTable NPForm x y ** {n = conjNumber x.n y.n ; p = conjPerson x.p y.p} ;
+
+  consNounPhrase : ListNounPhrase -> NounPhrase -> ListNounPhrase =  \xs,x ->
+    CO.consTable NPForm CO.comma xs x ** 
+       {n = conjNumber xs.n x.n ; p = conjPerson xs.p x.p} ;
+
+  conjunctNounPhrase : Conjunction -> ListNounPhrase -> NounPhrase = \c,xs ->
+    CO.conjunctTable NPForm c xs ** {n = conjNumber c.n xs.n ; p = xs.p} ;

+    \c,xs ->
+    CO.conjunctDistrTable NPForm c xs ** {n = conjNumber c.n xs.n ; p = xs.p} ;
+
+-- We have to define a calculus of numbers of persons. For numbers,
+-- it is like the conjunction with $Pl$ corresponding to $False$.
+
+  conjNumber : Number -> Number -> Number = \m,n -> case <m,n> of {
+    <Sg,Sg> => Sg ;
+    _ => Pl 
+    } ;
+
+-- For persons, we let the latter argument win ("either you or I am absent"
+-- but "either I or you are absent"). This is not quite clear.
+
+  conjPerson : NPPerson -> NPPerson -> NPPerson = \_,p -> 
+    p ;
+
+
+
+--2 Subjunction
+--
+-- Subjunctions ("kun", "jos", etc) 
+-- are a different way to combine sentences than conjunctions.
+-- The main clause can be a sentences, an imperatives, or a question,
+-- but the subjoined clause must be a sentence.
+--
+-- There are uniformly two variant word orders, e.g. 
+-- "jos poltat minä suutun"
+-- and "minä suutun jos poltat".
+
+  Subjunction = SS ;
+
+  subjunctSentence : Subjunction -> Sentence -> Sentence -> Sentence = 
+    \if, A, B -> 
+    ss (subjunctVariants if A.s B.s) ;
+
+  subjunctImperative : Subjunction -> Sentence -> Imperative -> Imperative =

+  subjunctVariants : Subjunction -> Str -> Str -> Str = \if,A,B ->
+    variants {if.s ++ A ++ commaPunct ++ B ; B ++ commaPunct ++ if.s ++ A} ;
+
+--2 One-word utterances
+-- 
+-- An utterance can consist of one phrase of almost any category, 
+-- the limiting case being one-word utterances. These
+-- utterances are often (but not always) in what can be called the
+-- default form of a category, e.g. the nominative.
