Hello everyone, could you help me, please? I’ve tried to study a bit more about comparatives recently and unfortunately faced an issue. For example,

So, I can say “You earn twice as much as I do”. And vice versa “I earn half as much as you do”.

I wonder what I should say about the object (price, salary, etc) which is less in following situations:

The red dress costs five times as much as the blue dress.

And other way round?

The blue dress costs….?

Kate earns six times more than Jane does.

How do you say that vice versa:

Jane earns…?

3) Bank 1 offers loans at five per cent interest rate. Bank 2 offer loans at twenty per cent interest rate.

The interest rate in Bank 2 is fourfold as much as in Bank 1.

The interest rate in Bank 1 is …?

I’d be grateful if you could give as many possible answers as you can think of. Thanks in advance.

Hi there! I'm from Russia and I like my first language very much. I also have great respect for people who learn Russian, so I offer my help. If you have any questions about my country or my language, feel free to contact me. If you need any help or just want to practice Russian, don't hesitate to write to me as well.

I'm learning Chinese and want to practice it. I already have a very good Chinese friend who helps me. I'd still like to find some more if you don't mind talking mostly in English, as I'm a total beginner and can say very few phrases in Chinese. My English is not that bad,I hope, so I can help you with it if your level is lower than mine.

I'd also appreciate any kind of communication in English, no matter whether you are a native speaker or not.

I'm looking for open and friendly people, not for romance. If you'd like to find some, I'm definitely a wrong person.

Hello, my name's Elena. I've been learning Chinese for several month. I find it quite complicated but interesting. I want to chat in Chinese. However, I do realize that my Chinese is very poor, but English can help. I can speak English quite well. I can help you or give you some lessons in English or Russian in return. I like learning languages, reading books, watching films, walking around the city or going to the countryside. I listen to different kinds of music: classical, rock, pop and jazz. I like animals, but I don't have any pets because I'm allergic to their fur.
