Comparing With Πιο
Πιο before an adjective forms a common comparative; από introduces the comparison standard.
How It Works
Πιο before an adjective forms a common comparative; από introduces the comparison standard.
The adjective still agrees with its noun or subject. A comparative does not require an explicit standard when the conversation already makes the comparison clear.
