what is the difference between 'similarity to' and 'similarity with'?
Both are found, but there is no obvious difference in meaning. Similarity to is the preferred construction in both American and British English.

"in a similar way as" or "in a similar way to"?
It is "the same as" or "similar to". As should not be used with similar. See this ruling on The Free Dictionary: similarity n ˈsimilarly. adv. Usage: As should not be used after similar: Wilson held a similar position to Jones (not a similar position as Jones); the system is similar to the one in France (not similar as the one in France)

Similar vs Similarly to - English Language & Usage Stack Exchange
The argument I am faced with is whether we should use the adverb, similarly, by essentially implicitly encapsulating the entire process to arrive at a new equation as the verb; or whether we should use the adjective, similar, to suggest that the equation or citation are similar to our equation, but leave us with the ambiguity illustrated in ...

word usage - similar to or similarly to - English Language & Usage ...
‘Even sinkholes similar to the one last summer have been around since the 18th Century.’ ‘After all a bully is somewhat similar to a stalker, they follow you, taunt you, frighten you.’ ‘This wide sweeping course is one of the newest on the circuit, and is very similar to Las Vegas and Michigan.’

Is "there're" (similar to "there's") a correct contraction?
1) "juice" in the first question is a noncount noun, thus you will answer with "some" or similar modifier "little" etc. And it is perfectly acceptable to say and write, "there's" 2) For the second question, if you have but one towel, it is perfectly OK to say, "Yes, there's one in the closet."

meaning - Difference between 'analogous to' and 'similar to' - English ...
Similar refers to things that are somewhat alike, and those characteristics that are alike are the same in a direct comparison. For example, you might use "similar" to describe how a man had a remarkable likeness to his father. Analogous refers to parallelism or correspondence. For example, the heart is analogous to a pump, or an airplane's ...

synonyms - Formal alternative for "like" and "such as"? - English ...
In @JSBangs's answer, 'such as' introduces an example. In @Robusto's comment, 'like' means Monet and other painters similar to him. There is a subtle difference as when we use 'such as' the way JSBangs has, the other examples might not share similarities with the selected one. –

idioms - "in the same vein as" vs. "in a similar vein to" vs. "along a ...
Following from Elian's answer, the use of Google Books trend viewer was excellent, but left me perplexed - "in similar vein" sounded like the more common option to me. It turns out, the preposition at the end of the phrase is important. If you do the same search without "to" or "as", then you get, from most common to least common: "In a similar ...

word choice - Identical Meaning of "similar to" and "like" - English ...
Broadly, "similar to" and "like" are interchangeable (and MS should leave your style choices to you). Quite separately, I think you'll have a hard time explaining the difference you suggest between " A is similar to B" indicating objects are quite distinct, and "A is like B" suggesting they are practically the same.

What's the exact usage of "that of"
Adam's problem is similar to his friend's. But you need it for longer noun phrases.
