in the measure

[navi tasan]

Are these sentences correct:
1-The temperature decreases as we move away from the eqautor.
2-As we move away from the eqautor, so the temperature decreases.

3-The temperature decreases proportionally as we move away from the equator.
4-The temperature decreases in the measure that we move away from the equator.

1- yes
2- yes, as long as there is a ratio.
3- yes
4- A bit Miltonic. ;-)

I am a non-native speaker. That gives me a right to be Miltonic!!!
Thanks (and, I'll try to avoid number 4 anyway!).

Milton was a native speaker. rather a long-winded one, but native. actually, I rather like his work. ;-)
