Hi Quoc
I'd say the second as is understood:
I no longer have as much of something (as I had before).

Hi,
You asked:
| Quote: |
The state of no longer having sth as much of sth.
What is the meaning of as much of sth?
Why there aren't 2 words "as" in this sentence, as in:
The state of no longer having sth as much of sth as...
What I don't understand, that is,normally, in comparaison, there are 2 "as" (as...as). Why there is only one "as" in this sentence? |
As much as I would like to help you, I can't see the problem because I can see as writteh twice in your sentence!
