As much as.....



I am still struggling with "as QUALITY as."

For example, "His house is as big as a shuttlecraft."

I am going to stick my neck way out on this one:

tIn juHDaj rap tIn lupDujHom

Or, is <qar'a'> only usable as an interrogative when moved to the middle of a
sentence (TKD p179).  Is it absolutely taboo to use some other stative verb
in this manner?  I've certainly never yet seen any other attempts at such a
sentence construction.
