THE SAME (NOUN) AS WITH

No. The sentence does not make sense. What does "as with" mean? Do you mean "Are you eating the same food you ate earlier?"

Thanks for the response.

Guren FirippuHi guys! Is it okay to say, Are you eating the same food as with earlier?

No. "Are you eating the same as you were earlier?"

Probably all you need is "Are you still on the same diet?"

What I meant by this sentence is, someone asked me if I was eating the same food I ate earlier.

So, going back to my question, "Are you eating the same food as earlier?", how should I rephrase this?

"Are you eating the same food that you had earlier?"

Actually, I find it better to say "Are you having the same food that you had earlier?"

Thanks Dom for the response! ^^ One more thing, is it okay to say, "You have the same book as mine"?

Guren FirippuYou have the same book as mine

You will be understood, but you are literally saying that I have the same book as your book has. Books can't have other books. People have books. So you really need "the same book as I do" at the end, or "the same book as me".

This is more understandable. Thank you so much for the accurate explanation CJ. Appreciate it much. ^^
