Jun 7, 2016 at 16:53 comment added inches Thank you I didn't know the "with + subject + adjective (participle)" construction.
Jun 7, 2016 at 16:41 comment added user24743 @inches If you know the meaning of the sentence, how can you ask if there are two meanings? If you understand the "with + subject + adjective (participle)" construction, there is no way that you can ask the question. Do you understand the construction?
Jun 7, 2016 at 16:38 comment added inches I know meaning of sentence already. but I want to make sure that why there are only one meaning. so you mean because of semantic reason not grammatical reason, there is one meaning.?
Jun 7, 2016 at 16:30 comment added user24743 @inches The pattern is "the earlier girls develop, the more likely they will suffer from depression (than those who develop more slowly) in adolescence.
Jun 7, 2016 at 16:29 comment added inches you mean : Other studies, including in the United States, have shown this same pattern, with girls who begin developing earlier than their peers (which is) vulnerable to depression in adolescence. and there are so comparative 'earlier' that it has never two meaning?
