Comparisons with AS...AS
Hi,
When making comparisons with as...as, why do you put the verb to be at the end of the second sentence, if the original sentence is like this:
"My parents are more interested in fashion than I am."
"I’m not as interested in fashion as much as my parents are."
Secondly, in these sentences:
"I like comfortable shoes more than stylish ones.""
I don’t like stylish shoes as much as comfortable shoes."
Is the second sentence making a comparison with as and as and a noun or adverb?
Thank you.
