    Sep 1, 2020. #10. ‘Until further notice’ is a fixed, well-known expression that doesn’t match the Italian perfectly, but will probably work in many cases.

  9. comparing it against/with - WordReference Forums

    forum.wordreference.com/threads/comparing-it-against-with.2216003

If you want to use "with" you would have to say "...comparing it with the results of the modelling..." This is very common scientific usage, perhaps because you always set out to ...

For example, the words "numbers" or "people." We would not say, "Too much numbers or too much people." It's correct to say, "Too many numbers, or too many people."
