Differences/such as- so as
Message from jasna posted on 08-10-2011 at 09:48:32 (D | E | F)
Hello,

Could you please explain the differences between:
such as
so as
like as

I am still confused about their use in sentences.
Thanks a lot.

Hello,
Please use a dictionary:
Lien Internet

or
Lien Internet

Best wishes.

such as = I like fruits such as apples.
= I give an example

so as = he is learning English so as to take an exam
= succeeding that exam is his aim in life

like is used to compare 2 things or people
he swims like a champion

as is used to say someone acts as if they were this or that
he works as a doctor but he has no diploma; he is a con man
