Is expressing curry this way more illuminating?

curry :: ((a,b) -> c) -> (a -> b -> c)
curry g = \x y -> g (x,y)

That is, curry is a function taking one argument that produces a
result function taking two arguments.

In Haskell - the type signature:

> curry :: ((a,b) -> c) -> (a -> b -> c)

... can mean either form.

Though this is a "quirk" of Haskell, in the language Clean, for
example, the parens in the type signature "mean what they" say so only
only my second definition is allowed, the first version won't compile.

Best wishes
