Grammar Quiz No.123

N3Comparisons〜ば〜ほど alternatives

日本語は勉強___ほど面白くなります。

Q. Which form completes the shortened 'the more you study...'?

Translation

The more you study Japanese, the more interesting it gets.

Explanation

Besides すればするほど, the dictionary form + ほど alone also works: 勉強するほど面白くなる. Directly before ほど the plain form is required — すれば cannot attach there.
