MANDARIN: Basic comparisons with 一样 (yīyàng)

一样 (yīyàng) is used to express that two things are the same in some way. When you add an adjective, Noun 1 is as adjective as Noun 2.

Noun 1 + 跟 / 和 + Noun 2 + 一样

Noun 1 + 跟 / 和 + Noun 2 + 一样 + Adj. 

Examples:

1. 这 个 词 的 意思 和 那 个 词 一样 吗 ？

Are the meanings of this word and that word the same?

Juliet hasn’t seen a dead body yet and it must have been her biggest achievement besides not having died. She couldn’t shake off the mental image of her family all gathered up together watching and biting their nails. For them, she had to consider going back home, even though it seemed impossible, even though the headache of carrying on wasn’t some passing migraine. There she was and there she would remain until her dying breath. The appearance of the arena didn’t make it easier to swallow -- on the contrary, the unfriendly dry lands seemed to have swallowed her instead. No heartbeat, no movement, no one else. 

 Tired and defeated, Juliet felt her feet collapse under the weight of those thoughts. Near denser bushes, she gave in and sat on the dusty ground, playing aimlessly with a tiny bit of her jacket sleeve.

There was one place Mokou wanted to be when she had the free time to leave Fibonacci. It was strange for her to keep around someone from her old life, but Justine was her friend, her only friend, and she wasn’t going to give that up. It helps that Archimedes was the opposite way from Cotes, so running into anyone else was unlikely. Mokou recalled that Justine’s parents were the strict perfectionist sort, so she knew not to just go through the front. Instead, she had gotten good at leaping over fences and, more importantly, climbing through windows without being seen. Was Justine home yet even? Well, Mokou’d find out, won’t she?

Will Jazz pull an avatar move and get his soul transfered to be a real mech at the end of the au??👀

I. Hm.

Either that or Prowl will have to face the fact that humas..uh....don't live very long.

MANDARIN: Expressing “more or less” with 差不多 (chàbuduō)

差不多 (chàbuduō), translated literally, means "the difference is not much." In practice it means "more or less," and is used for expressing approximations.

Subj. + 差不多 

When several things are 差不多 (chàbuduō), it means they are "more or less the same." Two subjects are linked with “and”.

A + 跟 / 和 +  B + 差不多 

When using 差不多 (chàbuduō) as an adverb, it is placed before the adjective or verb. 

差不多 + Adj. / Verb 

 差不多 (chàbuduō) is placed before phrases of quantity and time to make a rough estimate about them.

差不多 ＋ [Quantity Phrase] / [Time Phrase]

Examples:

1. 这 两 个 词 的 意思 差不多 。

Zhè liǎng gè cí de yìsi chàbuduō.

The meanings of these two words are more or less the same.

2. 这里 的 天气 跟 台湾 的 天气 差不多。 

Zhèlǐ de tiānqì gēn Táiwān de tiānqì chàbuduō.

The weather here is pretty much like Taiwan's.

3. 我 跟 我哥哥 差不多 高。

Wǒ gēn wǒ gēge chàbuduō gāo.

My older brother and I are more or less the same height.

4. 他 住 在 上海 差不多 三 个 月 了。
