----------------------
Which one is right? Ae both OK?
Both are correct, but the second one is more commonly used.
=)
Both sentences are grammatically correct, but they convey slightly different meanings.
1. "The lower prices are, the more people will buy."
This sentence implies that the lower prices in the future will lead to an increase in the number of people who will buy. It focuses on the potential future outcome.
2. "The lower prices are, the more people buy."
This sentence emphasizes the current situation or general rule. It suggests that lower prices always lead to more people buying, without specifying when or if this will change.
So, depending on the context or intended meaning, either sentence could be correct.
