  In this note, we continue to be interested in the relationship that connects
the restricted distribution of finitude at the local level of intermediate
fields of a purely inseparable extension $K/k$ to the absolute or global
finitude of $K/k$. In "{\it $w\_0$-generated field extensions,}Arch. Math. {\bf
47}, (1986), 410-412", JK Deveney constructed an example of modular extension
$K/k$ called $w\_0 $-generated such that for any proper subfield $L$ of $K/k $,
$L$ is finite over $k$, and for every $ n \in {\mathbf N}$, we have $ [k^{p^{-
n}} \cap K: k] = p^{2n} $. This example has proved to be extremely useful in
the construction of other examples of $w\_0$-generated extensions. In
particular, we prolong the $w\_0$-generated to an extension of unspecified
finite size.However, when $K/k$ is of unbounded size, we show that any modular
extension of unbounded exponent admits a proper subextension of unbounded
exponent. This brings us to study the $w\_0$-generated in the restricted sense.
In addition, with the aim of extending the $w\_0$-generated to a purely
inseparable extension of unbounded size, we propose other generalizations.
