Comparisons of inequality Comparisons of inequality are formed by placing más (more) or menos (less) before adjectives, adverbs, and nouns and que (than) after them. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

¡Atención! Note that while English has a comparative form for short adjectives (taller), such forms do not exist in Spanish (más alto). Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

When the comparison involves a numerical expression, de is used before the number instead of que. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

¡Atención! Note that tanto acts as an adjective and therefore agrees in number and gender with the noun it modifies. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

Tan and tanto can also be used for emphasis, rather than to compare, with these meanings: tan so, tanto so much, tantos/as so many. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

Comparisons of equality with verbs are formed by placing tanto como after the verb. Note that in this construction tanto does not change in number or gender. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.
