| Definition |
a strategy for the relative clause construction in which the relative clause is juxtaposed to the matrix clause (not unlike the adjoined strategy), the necessarily shared participant is expressed in the relative clause (not unlike the internally headed strategy) accompanied by a relative clause marking morpheme (which may be a relative pronoun form), and the shared participant is also expressed in the matrix clause, as either a noun or a pronoun. Example: Hindi [ādmī ne jis cākū se murgī ko mārāthā] us cākū ko rām ne dekhā Ram saw the knife with which the man killed the chickenis an instance of the correlative strategy: the relative clause ādmī ne jis cākū se murgī ko mārāthā The man killed the chicken with which knifecontains the relative clause head cākū knife, modified by the relative pronoun jis which, and is preposed to the matrix clause us cākū ko rām ne dekhā that knife Ram saw, which contains a second expression of the relative clause head us cākū that knife.

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).
