A question about the comparison with 比
Hi!
I am studying (again because I keep forgetting) the basic comparison with 比 and I've found these two sentences:
我 不 比 你 适应 现代都市生活。
I am not more accustomed to the life in modern cities than you.
我 不 比 你 翻译 得 好。
I don't translate as well as you do.
My question is: why in the first sentence there is that "I am not more ...than you" in the meaning that both are not accostumed to the life in modern cities? There is 都 and so it means that both of "us" are not accostumed to live in modern cities?

Hello :)
In fact, depending on the context, 都 can be read either as:
dōu (adverb): all / even / already
or
dū (noun): capital; metropolis
In the first sentence, there is the word 都市 dūshì, which is a 2-syllable word that means "city".
