How it works

This phrase is a declarative statement. It uses the structure 'verb + quantifier + noun + adverb + adjective' to express a comparative preference. '换 (huàn)' means 'to change', '个 (gè)' is a common measure word, '方式 (fāngshì)' means 'method/way', '更 (gèng)' means 'even more/more', and '好 (hǎo)' means 'good/better'.
