Adverbs with AdjectivesHSK 3
Asking about degree with 多
To ask 'How [adjective] is [subject]?', simply place 多 directly before the adjective. This pattern works for any adjective that has a measurable degree, such as height, size, weight, or distance. Be careful not to add 吗 at the end of a direct question—the pattern itself forms the question.
