Question about English (US)
Hello guys💙 My question is: If somebody asks me to compare two things, would it be correct to say these two sentences?
a. I see them as EQUALS.
b. There is no difference BETWEEN them.
Regarding grammar, are they correct? and would I sound natural if I say them?
Please, any help would be appreciated 🙏😊

Pretty good!
Sentence "B" is fine
Sentence "A" could be written like this: I see those two as equal to each other.

Yes. Actually when you want to learn english you should practice and practice to pronounce it correctly.

@Little_Wabash Great, thank you so much for your answer. About (A) I knew it sounded strange but now I know the correct way to say the same😊. And as for (B) I thought for a moment that writing/saying "between" was incorrect and saying "in" would be better.

Grammatically they are correct and they would sound natural if said out loud. All good.

@Klarixaun Thanks. I still have some doubts about "equalS". Do people in the US really use it in everyday conversations? Thank you so much for your help😊😊

@ILYLJS Yes, I'm aware of that. I just wanted to know if those two sentences were natural and grammatically correct. Thank you anyways for the advice 👍😊😊

@OscarGacitua Well, I can't speak for the US but I know most English speakers have either heard the phrase, use it or both. In my classes there have been times where other peers would use 'equals' when they are comparing things.
Happy to help! It's just one of many phrases to use when comparing things, it's good to have variety.
