There is a mix of fact and fiction in that facts are organised into a coherent framework that is derived from Christian categories posing as the tertium comparationis, the resultant construction being somewhat mythical.
A proper approach would be to develop the tertium comparationis from a comparative study of concepts in all these belief systems.
Knowledge of the local or indigenous is a prerequisite for the development of the tertium comparationis.

 Style02
A metaphor, in very simplified terms, is a covert comparison; a word or phrase from one semantic field is substituted with a word or phrase from another.
There has to be at least one common characteristic between the two parts for the metaphor to work (common ground or tertium comparationis).
When one tries to interpret a metaphor or a simile, the focus of attention is at first the tertium comparationis, the common ground between the two items, because this provides additional information about the primum comparandum (Brunhilda).

 Ensuring Fair Play in Inter-Cultural Encounters Do we need a Tertium Comparationis? -- A Translator's Perspective
Without such a stable point of reference, the translator will tend either to absolutize his native culture, or the culture to which he is relating (this is probably the real meaning of going native), or a particular value.
Such a tertium comparationis is provided to some extent by the natural world in which all participants in the communication process live, and secondly by the way man is made physically predisposed to certain shapes, and certain ranges of sound waves.
However, the translator also needs that balance found within the natural law, or what C.S. Lewis called the Tao, adopting a term from the Far East, which preserves us from the range of fads that buzz so swiftly around the world in the absence of any stable metaphysical framework.

This contrastive action/speech is an important place for the determination of the tertium comparationis of the parable.
This form of parable is found predominately in Matthew and in the Sermon on the Mount in particular, although they do occur elsewhere in the Gospels.
The guidelines for determining the tertium comparationis are applicable here but because of the brevity of detail the principle implicit in the 'earthly' side may be somewhat more difficult to ascertain with certainty.

 Perfect languages   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
In many of the most notable projects for mechanical translation, there exists a notion of a parameter language, which does share many of the characteristics of the a priori languages.
There must, it is argued, exist a tertium comparationis which might allow us to shift from an expression in language A to an expression in language B by deciding that both are equivalent to an expression of a metalaguage C. If such a tertium really existed, it would be a perfect language.
The only alternative would be to discover a natural language which is so "perfect" (so flexible and powerful) to serve as tertium comparationis.

Translation, then, is one of the instances in language contrasts, and grammatical translation in particular, is effectuated only within the GCC, and not within a whole utterance or at the level of a separate grammatical form.
Grammatical integrals and types of language-specific GCCs serve as tertium comparationis in language contrasts (translation being one of contrast types), since no discrete formal means in a specific language can be absolutely equal to any (even analogous) means in another language (Kashkin 1991:14-16).
It is partly for this reason that we have to apply the transcendental universal model (universal semantic dimension — grammatical integrals or functional types — language specific GCCs) as a tertium comparationis for language contrasts, and translation in particular.

Tertium comparationis is the invariant against which two texts or text segments can be measured to judge variation, a hypothetical intermediate invariant considered an adequate translation against which to gauge variation in translation.

The aim of this paper is to explore some of the problems that arise in such inter-cultural encounters, and to argue that the most appropriate rules for the umpire are derived from an approach that takes seriously both epistemological subjectivity and metaphysical objectivity.
To exercise his role, the translator needs to do justice both to the participants and the subject matter addressed, and he cannot accomplish this without a tertium comparationis.
Examples will largely be taken from translation, but supporting examples may also be drawn from other fields.

Bartens further comments on the concept of tertium comparationis, central to CL. It is pointed out that different types of tertium comparationis are necessary in order to contrast different levels of the observed languages.
Moreover, modern CGs must not neglect 'the pragmatic, sociocultural and psycholinguistic levels which are nevertheless as integrally part of language as phonology or syntax' (p.

Sharp weapons, long and stiff objects, such as tree trunks and sticks, stand for the male genital; while cupboards, boxes, carriages or ovens may represent the uterus.
In such cases as these the tertium comparationis, the common element in these substitutions, is immediately intelligible; but there are other symbols in which it is not so easy to grasp the connection.
Symbols such as a staircase or going upstairs, representing sexual intercourse, a tie or cravat for the male organ, or wood for the female one, provoke our unbelief until we can arrive at an understanding of the symbolic relation underlying them by some other means.

These problems have been discussed primarily in the context of the contemporary international school assessments (TIMSS, IGLU, PISA).
As main themes they focused on the problem of finding the right functional equivalence and equivalence of meaning (tertium comparationis) as well as the problem of the usage of the category "culture" itself.
It will then be proposed not to use quantitative data as the basis for psychological methods, the better "tool" to grasp psychological functioning would be to focus on sense and meaning making.

In any sociopragmatic study, therefore, two sets of categories are to be contrasted: a linguistic category, and a sociological category.
In other words, two sets of tertium comparationis (TC) are required; a linguistic TC (TCL hereafter), and a social TC (TCS hereafter).
This means that the surface social and linguistic conventions of English and Persian are derived from a set of underlying social and linguistic conventions (TCSC, and TCLC).
