DERIVATIONder.spa.la-nominalizacion-usa-el-determinante-invariable
nominalisation uses the determiner that belongs to neither agreement class
Putting an adjective, an untensed verb or a whole clause in a noun position is done with a determiner carrying no gender, because there is no gender to copy.
An adjective standing alone in a noun position has no noun to take its gender from, and a clause has no gender at all. The determiner used in those positions is the one that carries no gender, and the fit is not a coincidence: it is the only determiner available where there is nothing to agree with. Nominalising an untensed verb is the residue because that shape does behave as though it had a gender, taking the ordinary masculine determiner and the masculine agreement that follows. The chain is contested because the field disagrees about whether the invariable determiner is one word with the object pronoun of the same shape.

Premises
derivation.premisesWhat has to be true for this chain to run. Roughly half of a chain's premises are other derivations, so a premise is often itself a chain.

Conclusions (2)
derives 2 of 3enumerated
The nominalised untensed verb, which takes the ordinary masculine determiner instead, since that shape is treated as having a gender for agreement purposes.
Residue (1)
- CONSTRUCTIONinfinitivo sustantivadounstatedno failed premise is named, so this row records that the case is not covered without recording why
Premises and conclusions declare no order (A16); listed alphabetically by id, a display choice and not a claim about which matters most. The steps above them are the one part of this component that IS a declared sequence, read from the applies-to composition chain.
Conclusions
derivation.conclusionsWhat the chain establishes. This is a set rather than a single fact: 45 percent of sampled derivations conclude about several things at once, and the several-ness is the claim.
Coverage, and what it does not reach
derivation.coverageThe arithmetic half is a required field and the build checks it. The residue rows are the structured half of the same statement.

Everything joined to this object
One group per typed edge, in both directions. A1b guarantees no object node is an orphan, so this is the whole navigation: an object with no edges would have failed the build rather than reached this page.
What this object is a kind of
Walking this object's own `is-a` edges: what it is a kind of. Several branches from one object are several classification axes, not competing supertypes.

Siblings are listed by name, then by id to break ties. That is a display choice made here and not an order the graph asserts.
Fan-out per dimension
