How and when should I use very and much in a sentence ?
For example
Ottawa is very colder in winter than vancouver
Or
Ottawa is much colder in winter than vancouver
?
Difference between very and much?
1 Answer
Ottawa is very colder in winter than Vancouver. - It's redundant. Never combine "very" with a comparative adjective. Please remember this syntax:
Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than + noun (object).
Hence, the second sentence is correct:
Ottawa is much colder in winter than Vancouver.
