Hi experts,
I wanted to clarify a very basic doubt I had on comparison. From what I understand, while comparing 2 entities, both entities should be parallel and the comparison should be across 2 logical entities. But I'm not able to differentiate between the below 3 sentences. Which would be correct and why? Please also explain why the wrong ones are wrong?
1. Ramesh has more money than Suresh
2. Ramesh has more money than Suresh does
3. Ramesh has more money than Suresh has
Thanks,
Akshay

Classic Ellipsis
I know it can be a little confusing.
The first two sentences are definitely the ones correct
First has ellipsis and second one doesn't but has one word more so with concision, I believe that 1 would be preferred over 2.
If you get confused on one parameter adopt another
The IMPACTS strategy by Veritas is a successful dynamic strategy to remember.

Hello Businessconquerer are you sure about the 1st one ? 1. Ramesh has more money than Suresh ---> so Ramesh has more money than Suresh? I think this is incorrect, it is like saying that ramesh has more money than he has Sureshes , Ramesh has more money than Suresh does sounds better and more accurate with no room for ambiguity ,however I do not know about option 3 let's hope that an expert will contribute with his knowledge.
