Qiyosiy darajaning yana bir shakli bu sifat va ravishlar oldidagi more soʻz oʻrniga less soʻzini qoʻyib
qoʻllashdir. Bunday hollarda less soʻzidan keyingi xususiyat otda kamroq ekanligi koʻrsatiladi.

A Ferrari costs $400 000, a Fiat costs $200 000.

So a Fiat is less expensive than a Ferrari. (arzonroq)

This chair is less comfortable than that one.
Qiyosiy darajalardan keyin olmoshlarning qoʻllanishiga e'tibor bering.

You are twenty years older than me. (me=toʻldiruvchi olmosh)

You are twenty years older than I am. (kishilik olmoshi+fe'l)
Demak, than/as soʻzidan keyin faqat olmosh kelsa, toʻldiruvchi olmosh, fe'l keladigan boʻlsa, kishilik
olmoshi qoʻllanishi lozim.
