Pi-finite rewrite system:
The TRS R consists of the following rules:

parseA_in_ga(.(a, .(book, .(falls, []))), s(s, book, fall)) → parseA_out_ga(.(a, .(book, .(falls, []))), s(s, book, fall))
parseA_in_ga(.(a, .(book, .(flies, []))), s(s, book, fly)) → parseA_out_ga(.(a, .(book, .(flies, []))), s(s, book, fly))
parseA_in_ga(.(a, .(box, .(falls, []))), s(s, box, fall)) → parseA_out_ga(.(a, .(box, .(falls, []))), s(s, box, fall))
