We have THREE TIMES AS MANY pears AS you.
On the Manhattan book, this is a correct statement, but isn't it supposed to be:
We have THREE TIMES AS MANY pears AS you HAVE.

Hi Akshay, have is implied.
Similarly,
I have more erasers than Mary.
This is equivalent to:
I have more erasers than Mary (has).
Basically as long as the meaning is not ambiguous, it is generally fine to skip (assume) the verb.

How do you decide if the meaning is ambiguous or not?
Eg: Amit has more love for money than his wife.
here the meaning is ambiguous in the sense that it can imply that Amit's love for money > Amit's love for wife or Amit's love for money > Wife's love for money
However, Amit cooks better biryani than his wife is unambiguous
These are some basic problems in which the ambiguous nature can be easily identified
I wanted to know how do you deduce if the meaning is ambiguous or not for higher level of difficult?
