LessonsClassifications of Tashbih: Terms, Multiplicity, Ground and ParticleQuiz

In non-tamthil, the ground does not consist of an organized configuration extracted from multiple components. It may be a single quality such as shape, color, brightness, or speed.

A star compared to a silver coin for roundness or brightness is non-representational when that one property supplies the ground.

The key distinction is composite configuration versus a relatively simple shared attribute.
