The micro-modular approach introduced in this book follows the principles given in Chapter 1. The approach is based on a complex network of extremely simple micro-modules. The linguistic analysis based mostly on the Finnish language shows that the approach gives us a new perspective both on the Finnish language and the methodology of grammatical studies. In this chapter, the properties of the approach are discussed both from a technical and a methodological point of view.
