OPERATIONopr.spa.nominalizacion-con-articulo

nominalización con artículo

The turning of an adjective, an infinitive or a whole clause into something filling a noun's position, done by putting an article in front of it and changing nothing else.

Nothing is added to the word being nominalised and nothing is taken away, which is what distinguishes this from derivation: the adjective is the same adjective and the infinitive the same infinitive, and only the article in front of it is new. The operation is therefore stated on the article, which is the element that does the work, rather than on the thing it converts. Its productivity is the argument for carving it at all. Any adjective can be nominalised, and any infinitive, so listing the results would be listing the lexicon twice, while stating the operation once covers every case including the ones nobody has produced yet.

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

An empty list, which is an assertion: this rests on nothing external, and somebody checked. It is not the same as nobody having looked.

What it does, and when it fires

operation.rule

The domain it works in, and the firing condition as a sentence. The checkable form of that condition is the selects group below.

syntacticit arranges or constrains words in a structure
triggertrigger

An article stands in front of a word or phrase that is not a noun, and the result occupies a position a noun phrase occupies.

How much it covers

operation.coverage

How many cases the operation actually derives, out of how many it claims, and how that was counted.

derives 3 of 3enumerated

None among the three inputs. What the operation does not settle is the class the result agrees as: it follows the thing referred to where there is one, and otherwise takes the shape used for no particular thing, which is a separate assertion this node does not make.

every case was counted, and the count closes: nothing is left over

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.

None in this view. This subgraph happens to be a tree, which the explorer draws as one without assuming it is one.

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.
