In MySQL, instead of using the "except" operator, one can use the following:

  1. "NOT IN" operator - This is used to exclude values that are present in a subquery.

  2. "LEFT JOIN" - This can be used to return all the rows from the left table and the matching rows from the right table.

  3. "NOT EXISTS" - This is used to exclude rows from a query if they do not exist in a subquery.

  4. "UNION" - This is used to combine the results of two or more SELECT statements into a single result set.

  5. "MINUS" - This is similar to "EXCEPT" in other databases, but not available in MySQL.

  6. "INNER JOIN" - It can be used to combine rows from two or more tables based on a related column between them.

  7. "WHERE NOT EXISTS" - This is used to exclude rows from a query if they exist in a subquery.
