Episode 37 - How to Express Comparison

- New words -

To compare two items or activities, use the sentence pattern:

AよりB(の)はAdjです。(A yori B wa Adj desu.)

AよりB(の)の方がAdjです。(A yori B no hō ga Adj desu.)


If you want to say something is more fun, big, interesting, etc. than something else or if you want to say you like something more than something else, you should use this pattern. In this sentence pattern, B is emphasized or preferred over A.


勉強よりゲームの方が楽しいです。(Benkyou yori geemu no hou ga tanoshii desu)

日本より中国の方が大きいです。(Nihon yori Chuugoku no hou ga ookii desu)

この本よりあの本の方が面白いです。(Kono hon yori ano hon no houga omoshiroi desu)


You can ask for another person’s opinion on two things in comparitive terms:

AとBとどちらのほうが【Adj】 ですか。　　
A to B to dochira no hou ga 【Adj】 desu ka?
Between A and B, which is more 【Adj】?


バスとでんしゃとどちらのほうがやすいですか。
Basu to densha to dochira no hou ga yasui desu ka?
バスの方が安いです。
Basu no hou ga yasui desu.


牛乳よりジュースの方が好きです。

gyūnyū yori jūsu no hō ga suki desu.

I like juice more than milk.


ゴルフよりテニスの方が楽しいです。

Gorufu yori tenisu no hō ga tanoshii desu.

Tennis is more fun than Golf.
