Expand the language by constants for and write . An A-type over a structure is a set of formulas in a fixed finite tuple , with parameters from , consistent with this complete theory.
Let . If no tuple of realized , thenThat sentence belongs to and contradicts the consistency of . ConsequentlyFor , any tuple works because domains are nonempty. This proves finite satisfiability; realization of the entire partial type may require an elementary extension.
