[Grammar] as much as

[persianfriend71]

Hi. Which one is correct? Are both sentences correct?
1. Tom gets paid twice as much as she gets paid.
2. Tom gets paid twice as much money as she gets paid.

Neither one makes sense unless "he" refers to another person.

 

[probus]

Neither is correct. Without context as to who "he" is they are both self-contradictory.

2. Tom gets paid twice as much money as she gets paid.
Correct?

 

[probus]

They are both fine now, although sone would argue that the word money in 2 is superfluous. Unless there is a good reason to include it (for instance, if the context involves discussion of non-cash compensation) it is better to omit it.

persianfriend, this is the latest in a series of threads for which you have given no context and failed to tell us where you found the sentences you are asking about or who wrote them.

It looks as though you are asking us to do your assignments for you.

That's a natural way to express the idea.
