As big as this or that?
Hi. Please tell me which is correct. Let's say there are three vases in a row, one next to the other.
1. The Korean vase is not as big as either the Egyptian or the Chinese vases.
2. The Korean vase is not as big as the Egyptian or the Chinese vases.
3. The Korean vase is not as big as the Egyptian or the Chinese vase.
Also, please tell me if the underlined part "one next to the other" is correct or not when considering three items. Should it be "one next to another"? Thank you in advance.
