I don't think tlhIngan Hol has a very nice way of doing that. To say "You
are as greedy as a Ferengi", I'd be inclined to manipulate it to the
following:
"Because you are greedy, you are like a Ferengi"

PS> "raplaw'" is "be the same as" with a "apparently" suffix; I couldn't
find a word for "like" or "similar", so I'm hoping that construct does a
similar function?
