有 + Adj. (comparable degree)
含义
The pattern A + 有 + B + Adj. is used to ask or state whether A reaches the same level as B in some quality. It is most commonly seen in questions with 吗.
This structure uses 有 (to have/reach) to ask whether one thing measures up to another in a specific quality. The affirmative form states that A does reach B's level, while the negative form 没有 states that A falls short. Unlike 比 which asserts superiority, this pattern focuses on whether a threshold is met. It is especially common in questions like 你有他高吗? (Are you as tall as him?). The negative 没有 form is much more frequent than the affirmative 有 form in declarative sentences. Learners often confuse this with 一样, but 有 emphasizes reaching a benchmark rather than exact equality.

起源与历史
有 in this construction extends its core meaning of 'to possess' into 'to reach' or 'to attain.' This comparative usage developed in vernacular Chinese as a way to measure whether one entity reaches the standard set by another.
