Patrón

替 / 同 / 较 + noun + verb phrase

替 + person means “for someone, in someone’s place” (我替你去) or feeling something on someone’s behalf (替你高兴). 同 + person means “with” and works like 跟 in a slightly more formal tone. 较 + noun means “compared with” and is used in written reports.

你得了第一名,大家都替你高兴。

When to use 替, 同 and 较 for “For,” “With” and “Compared With”

Like other prepositions, 替, 同 and 较 come before the verb with their noun. 替 + person shows who you act for: 我替你去 means you go so that the other person doesn’t have to; with feelings, 替你高兴 and 替我担心 mean feeling happy or worried for someone. 同 + person means “with” (同你商量 “discuss with you”) and is a more formal or southern-sounding 跟. 较 + noun means “compared with,” mainly in written reports: 较去年增加了不少.

Don’t worry about me; I can handle it myself.

I’d like to discuss something with you.

  • 较 is written style; in casual speech say 比: 今天比昨天热.
  • Don’t confuse preposition 较 (较去年增加) with adverb 较 “relatively” (较好).
