"狗比猫热情吗？"

Translation: Are dogs more affectionate than cats?

[Francisco338413]

Is a dog more warm hearted than a cat? should also work

[KX3.]

Yes, but generally for such cases the plural is implied. Chinese uses a lot of measure words 量词. For example, in English one would say "three apples" while in Chinese one says "three measure word strawberries" 三颗草莓.
In the same way the sentence you suggested would be translated as 一只狗会比一只猫更热情吗？or any acceptable equivalent, but they would likely use 一只 i.e. a 量词.

[Egill64]

depends on the dog , depends on the cat , and above all it depends on the human !

[DebbieJust]

Doesn't specify that it is plural. Therefore it should accept "Is a dog more affectionate than a cat?"

[floraafaunaa]

Even though it didn't specify ot was a plural, I think the sentence implies dogs and cats in general, therefore the translation is in plural. Hope this helps!

[jorjorswens]

This course is too specific. 热情 can be translated so many ways. Also plural isn't specified.

[DuDaoge]

"Are dogs or cats more affectionate?" This is both a closer literal translation and a conversational (American English, at least) translation.

[Gabrielle145359]

The Chinese sentence is not an either/or question. It is a yes/no question.
An affirmative answer indicates that dogs are more affectionate

[Ant.H]

Absolutely not.

[7pancakes]

for the record: no

[Dr_Jerry]

FWIW, in my experience comparative sentences with "more" usually use 更. In this case, it would be: 狗比猫更热情吗?

[Massoluk]

Yes

[johnarnold]

Of course they are!

[Rabea733910]

But I still prefer cats è_é
