Comparing with “As … As”
Use as + adjective + as to compare two things that have the same quality.
- “John is as tall as Alex” means they are the same height.
- “My sister is as old as your sister” means they are the same age.
To show that something does not have a quality to the same degree, put not before the first as. This usually means it has less of that quality.
- “New York is not as big as London” means New York is smaller.
- “This jacket is not as expensive as that one” means it is cheaper.
