Abstract: Inspired by the properties of an $n$-frame of gradients $(abla{f}_1,ldots,abla{f}_n)$ of a Morin map $f:Mightarrowmathbb{R}^n$, with $dimMgeqn$, we introduce the notion of Morin singularities in the context of singular $n$-coframes and singular $n$-frames. We also study the singularities of generic 1-forms associated to a Morin $n$-coframe, in order to generalize a result of T. Fukuda [4, Theorem 1], which establishes a modulo 2 congruence between the Euler characteristic of a compact manifold $M$ and the Euler characteristics of the singular sets of a Morin map defined on $M$, to the case of Morin $n$-coframes and Morin $n$-frames.
