'the' in fixed phrases like 'ahead of the curve'

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the word 'the' in set phrases like 'ahead of the curve', 'burst onto the scene' or 'swelling of the face'. It is most negative on 'the' in sentences that describe a thing with a noun phrase, like 'plastic is the preferred material'. Turning it up gave text that kept circling back to 'the meaning of'.
