Comparisons más que → more than menos que → less than tan como → as much as

Comparisons There are three different ways to express comparisons in Spanish: más que → more than menos que → less than tan como → as much as

Comparisons If you want to compare things directly, you can say the same phrases, with an adjective in the middle… it just has to match your subject! Lebron James es más alto que mi hermana. Mi hermana es menos simpática que mi hermano. Mi madre es tan cómica como mi padre. (person/thing 1) es más (adjective) que (person/thing 2)
