A "CP-CMP" only exists for comparatives where the object of the comparison contains real clausal structure, such as a verb or the gap of a verb. For simple non-clausal comparatives (e.g. "The dog is bigger than the cat", and the Icelandic equivalent which is possible without "than"), see ADJP.

Clausal complements of "og" in "eins og" are usually CP-CMP. See EINS OG in ADJP#ADVR_heads_of_ADJP.
