Re: "as --- as"
Antonio
The fomrula is:
as big as
as small as
etc..
In other words:
as + adjective + as
Consider the following sentence:
The Mercedes is as beautiful as the Mazda.
Here what we want to say is that:
The Mercedes is beautiful, and the Mazda is also beautiful.
We wanted to say that the Merecedes and the Mazda are the same in "Beauty".
Another example:
The Toshiba costs US$ 3000. The Dell costs US$ 3000.
We say: The Toshiba is as expensive as the Dell.
As---as Expression in the Negative
------------------------------------
Example:
The village is clean. The town is not very clean.
We say:
The village is cleaner than the town.
This expression can also be expressed as follows:
The town is not as clean as the village.
