FORMfrm.spa.canta-tilde
cantá
The affirmative command of the regular first conjugation example addressed to the familiar singular, stressed on the ending rather than the stem.
The second of the two cells in which the familiar address pronoun of this variety takes agreement of its own. The shape is the infinitive with its final consonant dropped and the stress left where the infinitive had it, which is the whole of the rule, and it is why the affirmative command differs from a peninsular one while the negative command does not: the negative one is built on the dependent mood and follows the same pattern in both systems.

The paradigm of cantar
Five person slots, not six. There is no tú row and no vosotros row: the dialect target is rioplatense-or-neutral, so the second person singular is vos, and widening the set is a type error rather than an editorial choice. Paradigm variant: the ordinary paradigm.

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
A4One row per dimension, largest first. That is a display order, not a verdict: 03-schema.md declares no threshold above which fan-out is too much, so this reports the count and grades nothing.
