Answer

It's a useful expression whenever you have to make comparisons. For example, I think the Cambridge and Oxford dictionaries are much of a muchness, so I buy whichever one is cheaper. My wife thinks that Apple and Samsung phones are much of a muchness, but I disagree. What do you think?

Answer

Of course! Feel free to share your thoughts on the topic. Do you agree that the restaurants in your town are all much of a muchness? Have you experienced a lack of variety or distinctiveness among the dining options? Or perhaps you have a different perspective on the matter. I'm here to listen and discuss.

Answer

Intuition is always very useful. How about the restaurants where you live; are they all 'much of a muchness'?

Answer

Great expression, I can answer correctly using my intuition hahaha

Answer

Honestly, I had to look it up on the web. Again, it is a tricky expression, but I love it a lot.
