Comparison between Two Items

🆚 How to Say “A is More ___ than B” in Japanese

In Japanese, adjectives don’t change like “great → greater.”
Instead, we use this easy comparison pattern:

🔸 Structure:

A の方ほうが B より (property) です。
→ A is more (property) than B.

🆕 Examples:

• 英語えいごの方ほうが 日本語にほんごより かんたんです。
  → English is easier than Japanese. (👀 hmm…)

• 猫ねこの方ほうが 犬いぬより しずかです。
  → Cats are quieter than dogs.

• 夏なつの方ほうが 冬ふゆより 好きです。
  → I like summer more than winter.

❓ Asking “Which is more ___?”

Use:

• A と B と、どちらの方ほうが (property) ですか？
  → Between A and B, which is more ___?

• or more casual:
  どっちの方ほうが〜？

Example:

A：パンとごはん、どちらの方ほうが 好き？
→ Which do you like more, bread or rice?

B：ごはんの方ほうが 好き！ 🍚
→ I like rice more!

🧠 Quick Notes:

• の方ほう = “side” → used to say “this one is more ___”
• より = “than” (comparison marker)
• No adjective change! Just drop it right in.
