โ๏ธ Comparative Adjectives: Bigger, More Beautiful, Better
Learn how to compare two things using short and long words. You will be able to say which thing is bigger, better, or more exciting.
Short Words
When a word is short, like 'big' or 'tall', we add '-er' to the end to compare two things. For example, a house is big, but a hotel is bigger. We usually use the word 'than' after the comparative adjective to connect the two things we are comparing.
Long Words
When a word is long, like 'beautiful' or 'expensive', we do not add '-er'. That sounds strange! Instead, we put the word 'more' before the adjective. For example, we say 'more expensive' or 'more interesting'. This makes it very easy to compare big words.
Irregular Words
Some common words do not follow the rules. They change completely! The word 'good' becomes 'better', and the word 'bad' becomes 'worse'. You just need to memorize these special words because you will use them all the time.
