I'm searching for a common way to say "I wouldn't go so far as to say that" in Mandarin. The only translation of this expression, that I found in a dictionary, is :



It's good, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that it's great.
挺好的，但是我不會極端到說棒極了。


However, since I have not found any other translation of "極端到" that expresses the idea of "go so far as to", I wonder if is this is a common way to say it.

The common way you would say it is




还没有……到……地步




For example, 挺好的，但还没有好到那个地步。



Or, it tastes fine, but I would not go so far as to say that it is delicious can be translated to




味道还行，但还没有好吃到十分美味的地步

    It's good, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that it's great.



    This sentence should be translated to
    挺不錯的，但還不到非常好。



    I never heard 極端到說棒極了, It's very odd, and no one would say that way.

      至于 can be used to interpret it.




      It's good, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that it's great. 挺好的，但(我)还不至于说它非常好。
