Take the tour ×  Say for example we are comparing the hotness of
weather of two countries or cities. They are both hot, but one
beats another one to a great extent. Lets say we are comparing
Dubai to Death Valley. How can we say in short that Death Valley
beats Dubai in hotness greatly? Something maybe in the form of:
Death Valley ____ Dubai in hotness!  But not necessarily
confined to the form above, if there is a better way to deliver
the meaning.  EDIT: In Persian for example we say something
like:  Death Valley is so hot, it puts Dubai in its side pocket!
