As … as, much / a bit + сравнение
Как сказать «такой же, как», «не такой, как» и «намного / чуть больше».
As … as: такой же
It’s just as beautiful as in the films. Прилагательное в обычной форме, без -er.
Not as … as: не такой … как
This city is not as warm as Los Angeles. Часто звучит мягче, чем colder than.
Насколько сильнее
much, a lot, far + сравнение = намного: much slower, far stronger, a lot warmer. a bit, a little = чуть-чуть: a bit flatter.
Ловушка
С -er нельзя very: much colder, а не very colder.
More and more
Всё больше и больше: more and more slowly, colder and colder.
The same as
Тот же самый: My suitcase is the same as yours.
