Yes. Logically, they may mean the same thing, but they are two different
ways of saying that thing.
*SuvwI''e' SoH Dun law' Hoch Dun puS
*/you are the greatest warrior/
*SoH Dun law' Hoch latlh SuvwI' Dun puS
*/you are greater than every other warrior/
Even in English these are said two different ways.
