    The document discusses comparing attributes that are equal or not equal using phrases like "as...as" and "not as...as". When attributes are equal, the pattern "as adjective as" is used with examples like "as tall as" or "as nice as". When attributes are not equal, the pattern "not as adjective as" is used with examples like "not as high as" or "not as sunny as". It also provides examples of using "as many/few" with countable nouns and "as much/little" with uncountable nouns to compare quantities that are equal or not equal.
