3.a The comparative of superiority is formed by translating more by labi pa, and than into sa; and also into dili, but in this case, both terms of comparison must be placed in nominative case, like in the comparatives of majority and of inferiority: Ex.
| Honor is more precious that riches. | Labi pang tacus higugmaon ang catahod-an sa pagcadaghan sa catigayonan |
4.a The relation of majority more, may be also rendered by daghan pa, and than, by sa or dili.
Ex:
| I have more silver than gold. | Daghan pa ang acong salapi sa bulaoan co, or (dili ang bulaoan co). |
| I have less shoes than hats. | Diutay pa ang mga sapin co, dili ang acong mga calo. |
