| Definition |
a subtype of parallel contrast in which the predicates in the two propositions have opposite meanings, while other parallel components of the proposition are members of posets. Example: in We will give our daughters to you and we will take your daughters for ourselves, the verbs giveand takehave opposite meanings, and the other parallel parts of the two propositions that differ form the posets {our daughters, your daughters} and {you, ourselves}.

The Model of Comparative concepts for Constructicon Alignment (MoCCA; Lorenzi et al. 2024) proposes to connect constructions across and within languages using Comparative Concepts as a shared base of comparison. It adopts the set of Comparative Concepts provided by Croft (2022).
