FORMfrm.spa.usted

usted

The stressed deferential singular address pronoun, referring to the addressee while taking the agreement of a third party.

The shape is the reason the person suffix on a verb does not always identify who is being spoken to. It refers to the addressee and takes the agreement of the set that refers to neither speaker nor addressee, so the referent and the agreement come apart. There is no status neutral singular between this shape and the familiar one, which is what the politeness record's obligatory value records.

No salience. Where no frequency source applies the object carries none, rather than a default or a guess (03-schema.md §3.5).

The paradigm cell

form.cell

Where this form sits in a paradigm. A form that sits in none carries no cell, which is a fact about the form and not a gap.

This form sits in no paradigm. cell is optional exactly so that a form outside a paradigm can say so (03-schema.md §8.3).

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

A4

One 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.

What kinds of this object there are

Walking the `is-a` edges that point at this object: what kinds of it there are. An object reachable two ways is drawn in both places and is still one object.
