Hi guys,

Are these sentences correct "I am double the age of yours" , " I am twice as old as him" , " He is half of my age"?
 
The first is not natural, The other two are fine. The third would be better as "half my age".
 
Thanks for the reply, I need some more replies.
 
Here's one. :up:

What for? How many ways of saying the same thing do you need? I'll give you one more: I am twice his age.
