This might be _____(易)said than done,请英语语法专家看过来啊
This might be _____(易)said than done,but there but there are many w_____ to help you do this.请问为什么这里用的是easier而不是easilier,不是应该用副词修饰动词的吗?

Answer 1

This might be (easier) said than done, but there are many (ways) to help you do this.
easier said than done 是成语,意思是 “说来容易做起来难”.
举个例句：
I'd really like to go to New York to see my sister, but it is easier said than done.
成语很多是从古时候传下来的,有时不符合今天的语法,这就是一个例子.这和汉语成语没两样.
这个考题测试的不是语法知识,而是成语知识.
学英语要多读、多听,就不会有这种疑问了.
