I'm 49 and forgot some terminology. Could someone tell me what "comparison of equality" means? I could use an example. I think it means an analogy. I need to write a sample test item. Thanks. L

this can be used with either nouns, adjectives, or adverbs, but maj is right, the form is AS...AS

noun:
most people have as many fingers as toes.

adj:
grammar is not as easy as you may think!

adv:
he does not sing nearly as well as i do.
