レッスンの概要
Read the sample sentence and notice how 与其说……不如说…… works in the frame: 与其说 A，不如说 B.
This pattern is used to compare two ways of describing the same thing. The speaker does not completely focus on A; instead, they think B better captures the truth. It is useful for opinions, analysis, and nuanced correction. Do not reverse the two parts: 与其说 introduces the less preferred description, and 不如说 introduces the better one.
文型
与其说 A，不如说 B

Yǔqí shuō tā cōngming, bùrú shuō tā tèbié nǔlì.
Rather than saying he is smart, it is better to say he is especially hardworking.
