Our approach to this problem will be to use a theory of experience that has evolved in language, as theorised by SFL. Our main tools or lenses will be:
- the domains of experience construed by the clause grammar, and
 
- instantiation — a type of elaborating ascription (congruently realised by intensive attributive relational clauses).
 
The great advantage of using a theory that has evolved is summed up by Orgel's Second Rule: 
Evolution is cleverer than you are. 
And why use a theory of language to construe human individuality?
