comparison

noun kohm-pah-rah-SYOHN Less Common

Usage Note

Comparación is used in the fixed phrase en comparación con (in comparison with) and the literary simile marker como or a modo de comparación. The verb is comparar. Note the written accent on the final syllable, which shifts in the plural: comparaciones (the accent disappears because the word now ends in -s with penultimate stress).

Examples

"En comparación, este precio es mejor."

Natural Translation

In comparison, this price is better.
