Comparison In Arabic

To form comparison or express equality in Arabic we add the word “methla مثل” or the prefix “kaك "to the thing or person compared with, for example:

He is as tall as Ali = howa taweel methla Aliهو طويل مثل علي    

or howa taweel ka Ali  هو طويل كعلي

That horse is as fast as an arrow = hisaani saree’ methla arromh حصاني سريع مثل الرمح   

or hisaani saree’ karromh حصاني سريع كالرمح
