A Procedure for Device Questions

The idea

Read the quoted phrase, ask whether anything is being compared, then ask whether the comparison is announced, part for whole, associated, or human-attributing. Four questions in order, and they sort the whole group. Ordering them is faster than recalling definitions one at a time.

In practice

Four questions, always in order.

Where people slip

Sorting beats recalling.
