部件结构
Two antique spoons are laid side by side to compare which one is more beautiful.
How it came to be
Two people in profile, facing the same way, one directly behind the other. Standing them in a line like that shows which is taller: the comparison is in the arrangement.
用法
- The comparison word: A 比 B + adjective = "A is more … than B" - 我比你高 (wǒ bǐ nǐ gāo) I'm taller than you.
- Trap: don't add 很/非常 to the adjective in a 比 sentence - say 比你高 not 比你很高. To say "a bit", put it after: 高一点 (gāo yìdiǎn) taller by a bit.
- Also "for example" 比如 (bǐrú), "compare" 比较 (bǐjiào), "match" 比赛 (bǐsài).
