Expressing "Prefer...rather than" with 与其...不如（yǔqí...bùrú)

Just like any other language, Chinese has many ways of expressing preference. One of the common ways is to use the 与其...不如（yǔqí...bùrú), and other similar variations. When a speaker uses 与其...不如（yǔqí...bùrú) to express "Prefer...rather than", he is choosing B over A. You can also add an optional 还, 倒, 真 before the 不如. The structure is 与其 + A，不如 + B.

For example,

你与其把钱花在赌博上，不如把它丢掉的好。Rather than spending money on gambling, it's better for you to throw them away.
