Compared To or Compared With - What's the Difference Between Compared To and With
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- In this video, learn how to use "compare to" and "compare with". You'll learn what the difference is between "compare to" and "compare with" and you'll learn which one you should use.
Both "compare to" and "compare with" are used when two things are placed side by side to examine their similarities and/or differences.
Both "compare to" and "compare with" use "compare" as the main verb. The verb "compare" needs to be conjugated with the subject and the time reference.
There are two acceptable prepositions: "compare to" and "compare with". The choice between the two depends on what you're comparing.
If you're talking about similarities, use "compare to".
If you're talking about differences, use "compare with".
Native speakers don't usually follow this rule. Native speakers generally use "compare to" for both similarities and/or differences, or they use "compare to" and "compare with" interchangeably.

Omg around ten years ago, when I studied in Toronto my English teacher deducted my points by using compare with. I'm so confused. Because what I learned in China was compared with instead of compare to. I really appreciate it.
Thank you so much! 😊

Hello Jennifer! It's wonderful to see you! You have a great style! Thanks a lot for the lesson and for clarifying that question! BTW, I like both written and spoken English, so that I'll use both of the phrasal verbs if writing and one of them if speaking, no problem:) My examples:
This vase looks more ancient compared with that vase.
We need to compare his offer to hers to make the right decision.

You look very nice compared to other teachers on RUclips. (should I say on RUclips or in RUclips?)
Please teach me some idea. I think u r one of the best teacher for me. I feel shy when am talking face to face with another person. And my word desapear from my mind.
It was the first video of you, I watched coz I had to tell one of my sisters what is the differences between compare to or compare with.
Nice!
Compared with other teachers, you are number 1 for me.
Thank you so much! 😊
At the beginning of the video you have said ,"This is a question that a student had submitted". Why did you use past perfect immediately? There is no mention of past before the sentence. So ma'am why. Plz explain. Plz plz plz. I am unable to understand. 🙏🙏🙏. I am looking forward to getting your reply.
My friend always compare me with her sister ... Which I don't like at all...
Thanks for making such good videos ☺️☺️
My pleasure 😊

Have a great Thursday 😉🇧🇷 stay aafe
Thank you so much!
It's useful ,thank you.
So glad! 😊
Thank you for your good explanation my teacher.
Wow you are really a great teacher.
I was looking for this subject.
I hope I can learn the difference between them.
You can do it!
I have always unerstood that "compare with" is where "with" is used to show an instrumentive object, and so when I say, "Let's compare this apple with this red apple", we are using the instrumentive object as the standard in order to determine the differences whereas when we use "compare to", it is just the comparison between two objects with no standard being expressed. E.g. Compared to him, I am better.
In this case, the person that you are comparing against is not the standard, and so the comparison is relative. However, I guess it works in roughly the same way.
Also, I liked the video, and I actually do animations on my channel to help my students with their English. Have a look.
Wow you awesome coach!
I totally got it
I have been confused them for a long time
Happy to help!
Magnificent thanks alot
Teacher JF I really want to join speaking class but unfortunately there is no time available in July
Is the use of "compared to/with" together with comparative adjective (smaller, higher, larger, etc.) wrong/not recommended?
For instance, how wrong are the following sentences?
1) On average, men are taller compared to/with women.
2) Participants' anxiety was higher during the first exam compared to the second exam.
3) Compared to male participants, female participants’ general anxiety was significantly higher.
4) Compared to male participants, female participants exhibited significantly higher general anxiety.
Great! ❤️
Thank you 😊
My pleasure! 😘
In comparison with vs In comparison to.
Which phrase is correct to use.
According to Oxford English Dictionary only "In comparison with" is available in example sentence.
According to P.C. Das, a writer of Applied English Grammar, Only "In comparison to" is available in example sentence.
By Google searching, I have come to know that in modern English "In comparison to" is more prevalent than "In comparison with"
But in British English "In comparison with" is also used.
In this respect, which phrase is best accepted in case of competitive exam???
Thank you. I usually used to compare everything "to" another :D :D I am a copyeditor now. I have to use them the right way.
Well explained.
So happy to hear that! 😁
When I was undecided where I'd go for vacation, then I had compared Rome beach with Barcelona beach.

Exactly!
Hello, Jennifer! Check out it:
Compare to: In my country, the economists are comparing this inflation to the one in 1981.

I hope it's correct. Cya!🙆

Dear teacher is this explanation correct?
"I don't compare myself to Einstein.(There is no any similitaries between me and Einstein and that's why I used "compare to" "
You got it!
Which is correct "compared to", or "compare to".
Depends which verb conjugation the sentence requires.
@@JForrestEnglish For example, compared to this movie that one is more interesting. So what will it be?
Perfect video, English pronunciation are more difficult as compared to French one

Mortals can’t be compared with God.
Which one is correct? Do we use “compared to” phrase to compare dissimilar things. Please clarify.
Great sentences!
I like this type of explanation video. So brief yet effective and so to-the-point!
Apart from any other RUclipsr English teacher, you definitely deserve more subscribers!
Thank you and Get on with your great work!
Glad it was helpful!
I've used "compared to" and "compared with" interchangeably all through my life.
_I was so short that my friends compared me to gnomes._ (1)
_I was so short that my friends compared me with gnomes._ (2)
For me both 1 and 2 mean the same thing - because of my height at that time, my friends thought I looked like a gnome.
To stress on differences, I'd write in the following manner-
_I'm a human being, in contrast to gnomes which are not human and are magical._
I wonder, why people ask such questions? By memorizing all grammar rules, all exceptions, all situations you are not going to become a fluent English speaker.
What you really need is a practice in real conversation as well as listening to a lot. Just use English as much as you can and all rules will get into your mind by itself in a natural way. You will feel when and how to say something correctly.
Sometimes the preposition does change the meaning, other times it doesn't ;)
What the differences between "compared with " and "comparing with"? When I wrote "Comparing with other alternatives, ....." grammarly corrected that sentence to "Compared with...", I don't understand why, can anyone helped me ?
Great question! I'll answer that in a future lesson! 😁
I got a question I need to ask. So, should I say I play with my friend or I hang out with my friend?
Only little kids play with people. Adults don't play.
We use can compare with and compare to with this example: there are many differences between tow kind of apples the red apple and the yellow one,, so, we can compare with 2 apples one is red and the other is yellow ,,,the taste between them is different but the 2 apples if we compare to them are useful for health .
Awesome examples! 👏
I have been comparing for 7 months which is better listening with reading .
I will wait your comment of this sentence because I’m not sure it is 100 correct. Thanks 🙏

Whoo hoo, way to go! 🏆
Thank you. Learning English can be compared to traveling to the wide world.

Thanks a lot,sister.
But,a point of correction,please.
1. Compare to_This is used, basically, to identify only the differences of two things or people. I mean_ONLY THE DIFFERENCES!
2. Compare with_This is used to describe both the differences and the similarities.
Be good,teacher!😊
