I think I should consider the phrase as much as apart from the other two structures: as much ... as; so much... that. These last two ones are those I'm most interested in. Let's check some structures: - I love you as much as you love that other guy.
- I love you so much that I would dance with a mouse all a whole night.
And now, trying to open a gap and filling it with some words: - I gave you as much love as you brought indifference back to me.
- I felt so much in love that I'm flying without a pilot license.
Thanks a lot for your help! |
You have got it right. When you use the words as much as, think of a scale, because as much as evokes a balance
In so/that, think of the prepositional phrase which intiated with
that as an adverb.
Your sentences have a nice whimsical character that will amuse some and confound others
