Hi,
I hear "I am three times prettier than my sister." I thought the correct way of saying this is "I am three times as pretty as my sister." Which is correct? Or both are acceptable in English?
In my school days, the latter was what I learned. Is the first form grammatically correct?
Thank you in advance.
