We move on to the next grammar item that we may find equally - TopicsExpress



          

We move on to the next grammar item that we may find equally confusing: How do we differentiate between compare to and compare with? To “compare to” is to suggest the similarities between things that have different natures, or when two different things are alike: * My dress is not eye-catching at all, as compared to your strapless dinner gown. To “compare with” is to suggest similarities between things that have similar natures, or to put one next to another to compare similarities and differences: * Kuala Lumpur can be compared with Penang in the sense that both are highly congested places. Can we try again? 1. The scenic place can be compared to a paradise on earth. 2. To compare my drawing with her drawing, my drawing looks more boring.
