"आमिर जूलिया से धीरे दौड़ता है।"

Translation: Aamir runs slower than Julia.

[ElizabethJ611722]

Can't Aamir be written as Amir? Is this a mistake?

[Gita-ji]

Duo considers it a mistake because Amir has a different meaning (rich, wealth, aristocrat).
They like names to be transliterated exactly.

Quietly going through these suggesting 'more slowly' etc as viable alternatives. I can't explain why but 'more slowly' strikes me as more grammatically correct than 'slower'.

[This_is_Roshan]

'More slowly' did seem apter to me than 'slower' in this case. It could have been because I felt that 'slower' is the comparative form of the adjective 'slow', while I felt the comparative form of the adverb 'slowly', i.e. 'more slowly', should have been used here.

However, on further reference, it turns out that 'slow' can also be used as an adverb. Therefore, this sentence is grammatically correct.

[guigarfr]

Both of them are grammatically correct

[Sam362597]

Yes, agreed, both are fine - but at the time (I don't know if it's changed) 'more slowly' wasn't being accepted as an answer.

[VZbLAexr]

No, it's sloppy English. "More slowly" is correct.
As in, "speak proper" vs "speak properly".
"Speak proper" is well understood but inappropriate in a language course.

I would like to suggest my own made-up alternative: slowlier!!

Why cant we use zyada ? Like for Aamir is taller than you : aamir toumse zyada lamba e ?

[taekookshii]

aamir tumse jyada lamba hai *

[bomaTqz6]

I siad I am wrong becuase I spelled the freaking name wrong like there is literaly no difference between Aamir and Amir (pronunciation wise.)

[Masalajw]

Why is the word धीरे instead of धीरा since it's affecting Aamir
