- <p>If you want to up the intensity of your comparisons, you might
- want to express "much more." You can do this using 多 (duō), but did
- you know there are actually three different ways to do it?</p>
- <h2 id="pattern-with-多">Pattern with 多</h2>
- <h3 id="structure">Structure</h3>
- <p>As well as expressing that two things differ, you might want to
- go further and say that they differ <strong>a lot</strong> by
- adding 得多 / 多了/ 很多 (dé duō/duō le/hěn duō). This is like saying
- that one thing is <em>much more Adj.</em> than another in
- English.</p>

- <p>Noun 1 + 比 + Noun 2 + Adj. + 得多 / 多了 / 很多</p>
