ordered strategy (str)
a.k.a.
the strategy for comparative (and possibly equative) constructions which metaphorically expresses the comparison of the comparee and the standard on the gradable predicative scale as a spatial path between the comparee (as spatial figure) and the standard (as the ground). In comparative constructions, the ordered strategy recruits a different-subject, absolutely deranked, simultaneous, or consecutive temporal complex sentence construction to express comparison. The separative, allative, and locative comparatives are examples of the ordered strategy. (Section 17.2.3)
