Dear Benny:
is it correct to say:
wo3 xi huan wode muqin bi3 wode fuqin.
I want to say: I like more my mother than my father.
Is it correct this use of BI3 in this kind of sentcences?

ni hao, Claudia nai nai,

You should say "bǐ qǐ wǒ de fùqin, wǒ gèng xǐ huān wǒ de mǔqīn = Compared to my father, I like my mother more.

Bǐ qǐ…. = compare to….

gèng xǐ huān = prefer/ like more….

The structure “A + Bǐ + B + adjective” is used mainly for adjective.
