Pales by comparison (with something)

Pales in comparison (with something)

 

相形見絀, 小巫見大巫, 相形失色、瞠乎其後, 黯然失色

When I listened to your violin recital, I finally realized that my skill pales in comparison with yours.

 

小事一樁, 小巫見大巫

I thought that I had the worst luck imaginable but my experience pales in comparison with Jimmy’s.

我以為我的運氣是難以想像的糟，但我的經驗與吉米的相比簡直是小巫見大巫。

我以為我的運氣是可以想像的最糟糕的, 但我的經驗與吉米的相比簡直是小巫見大巫。
