Definition

比 Sentence is one of the most frequently used sentence patterns to compare the differences between people, things or actions in terms of their nature or degree:

 

1, The structure "A 比 B + result" indicates the result of the comparison of A and B

 

2, A 比 B + result + a quantity

 

3, A 比 B + 更(还) + result

 

4, If the two items being compared share identical components, the identical parts in the latter half of the sentence can be committed
