ID: 2950 Pre Intermediate
  In this lesson, we're going to learn 4 different ways to make comparisons using the character 比 bi3. The sentence structure can be a little confusing at times, but since the adjectives don't chance so much, once you've learnt it, you can start making some really interesting and complex sentences.In this lesson we teach different ways to make comparisons, ranging from beginner, all the way to intermediate, so take your time with it, and look out for our Qing Wen lesson in a couple of weeks where we go more in to detail.
