Embodiments relate to a system, program product, and method for use with an intelligent computer platform to decipher analogical phrases. The aspect of deciphering the phrase includes parsing a phrase into subcomponents, identifying a category for each parsed subcomponent and a syntactic structure of the phrase, and generating a list of definitions for each parsed subcomponent. Definitions in the list are ranked according to relevance and an outcome base is identified based on ranked relevancy, with the outcome being a definition with the highest relevance in the list. A corpus is searched for evidence of a pattern associated with the list. Each definition in the list is scored according to a weighted calculation based on congruence of corpus evidence with the pattern. An outcome is generated from the pattern that receives the highest score based on congruence with the corpus evidence.
