I Learned "as A as B"
I want to speak English as fluently as a native speaker does. When I first learned about ‘as A as B’, I thought about the song, “As Long as You Love Me” by The Backstreet Boys. Furthermore, when I was younger, I just listened to the music, but now, I can understand the lyrics as well. Okay, perhaps not everything, yet, of course, but just enough. I guess ‘as A as B’ can have many purposes. It truly is such a useful conjunction.*/**
Hi, Red. Good job! Whatever changes I made were to allow your sentences to sound more natural to my native ears, to clarify your thoughts, and for ease of reading. Sincerest apologies if I have misinterpreted. I hope that this helps you. J.
*I had absolutely no idea what you were referring to by using ‘as A as B’ until I saw Rakel 's edit. I am guessing that equation is from a grammar book. I would also guess that, apparently, I missed that day of school… again…! (*-^)
**While there is nothing wrong per se with informally calling “as long as” a phrase (but it is definitely not an expression…), since your post is partially about the grammatical structure of “as A as B,” and as Italki is a learning website, I felt the need to use the proper grammatical term for it instead.
P.S. I love your avatar photo! It is very amusing!
