Comparative Structures with

It means both! Context is your best friend here. If there's an adjective involved (like big, small, good), it usually means 'than'. If it's about movement (coming, going), it means 'from'. For example, Delhi se could be 'from Delhi' or 'than Delhi' depending on the rest of the sentence.

If you just want to say 'I want more rice' without comparing it to bread, just use aur (more/additional) or zyada (plenty/more). Mujhe aur chawal chahiye.

Sabse is the shortcut for superlatives. Sab means 'all'. So sabse literally means 'from all'. If you are sabse smart, you are smarter 'from all' people.

Yes! But match the Subject (the winner), not the Object (the loser). In Sita Ram se lambi hai, lambi is female because Sita is the subject.

Indirectly. You usually add zyada or kam to help. Woh mujhse zyada padhta hai (He studies more than me).

Only in news reports, formal speeches, or textbooks. In daily life, stick to se. Using ki tulna mein to order coffee would be hilarious.

You usually pick the winner and compare it to the others, or just use sabse if one is clearly superior to the whole group.

Then don't use se! Use utna... jitna (as much as). Ram utna lamba hai jitna Shyam (Ram is as tall as Shyam).

It morphs into Mujhse. This is an 'oblique case' transformation. Same for Tu → Tujhse.

Yes. Tairna daudne se behtar hai. Notice we use the infinitive form of the verbs as nouns here.

Yes, bura (bad) becomes se bura (worse than) or badtar (Urdu loan for worse). Sabse bura is 'worst'.

Behtar is a Persian/Urdu loanword that means 'better' by itself. You don't strictly need se if the context is clear, but X Y se behtar hai is the full pattern.

Yes! Station ghar se door hai (The station is far from the house). Here it acts as 'from', but it sets up a reference point just like a comparison.

Use pasand (like). Mujhe X se zyada Y pasand hai. Literally: 'To me, from X, more Y liked is'.

In a full sentence, yes. In casual speech, you might drop it, but keep it for now to be grammatically correct.

Kam means 'less'. Yeh us se kam mehanga hai (This is less expensive than that). It works exactly like zyada but in reverse.

Sure. Woh us se bada aur behtar hai. Just put se once after the object.

Not if the adjective implies quality (like bada, chota, achha). But for abstract amounts, zyada helps. Bada implies size, but zyada bada emphasizes 'much bigger'.

Use bada for both. Mera bhai mujhse bada hai (My brother is elder/older than me).

Sometimes people say baap (father) to mean 'the ultimate/best'. Yeh phone sabka baap hai (This phone is the father of all / the best). Use carefully!
