In literature, “similar” functions as a versatile comparative marker that draws attention to shared qualities, recurring patterns, or parallel situations. For instance, in historical and analytical texts, authors use "similar" to highlight recurring practices or phenomena—such as Gibbon noting analogous tax practices ([1], [2], [3]) or Darwin comparing biological methods across species ([4], [5])—while in ethical and philosophical contexts, it signals analogous reasoning or behaviors, as seen in Sidgwick’s ethical inquiries ([6], [7]) and Freud’s examinations of neuroses ([8], [9]). In narrative and descriptive works, the term is equally valuable: it connects events and descriptions seamlessly, whether by emphasizing comparable actions in a character’s life ([10], [11]) or by underscoring thematic symbolic equivalences in myth and legend ([12], [13]). Thus, “similar” not only serves to compare but also deepens the reader’s understanding by linking ideas and images across diverse genres and contexts.
