as .

.

.
We will extend the road as far as the village.
is transitive: you stretch something. Things that stretch by themselves take i, so a hand is by its owner while a forest as to the horizon on its own. English hides that split under one verb, which is why learners write and produce a field that is quietly stretching something unnamed. The noun is o, and a does duty for extendable.
