Grammar
More vs More often
What is the difference. Does OFTEN emphasize the amount of times one has either been there for you or made you smile as opposed to the degree to which one has been there or made you smile.
1 She's been there for me more (often) than you. OFTEN optional
2 She makes me smile more/more often than you. OFTEN optional
How would you say the bold sentence please? How would you make it grammatical and can you use "emphasize" in the sentence?
Thank you
