ADJECTIVES IN COMPARATIVE DEGREE

The comparison is used in English to compare differences between the two objects that it modifies (larger, smaller, faster, higher). It is used in sentences where we compare two names, in the following way: Name (subject) + verb + adjective in comparative degree + than + name (object). The second term of the comparison can be omitted if it is understood from the context. (see the last example).

Examples
  • My house is larger than hers.
  • This box is smaller than the one I lost.
  • Your dog runs faster than Jim's dog.
  • The rock flew higher than the roof.
  • Jim and Jack are both my friends, but I like Jack better. ("than Jim" se sobreentiende)
Comparative adjectives are adjectives that are used to make a comparison between two nouns

    for example
    • The blue shirt is better than the green shirt.
      La camisa azul es mejor que la camisa verde.

      Short adjectives
      

      There are several rules that must be followed to form comparative adjectives.
      

      

      Rule 1: If an adjective has a syllable, add the ending -er 
      

      

      suffix. (short -shorter)
      

      

      

      Rule 2: If an adjective endsinthesequence[consonant,vowel, consonant], duplicate the last consonant before applying rule
      

      

      

      1. (we-wetter)
      

      

      

      Rule 3: If an adjective ends in -e, add -r to the end. (large - larger)
      

      

      

      

      

      Rule 4: If an adjective has two syllablesandendsiny,chang
      

      

      

      

      

      

      

       y to i and add the -er suffix to the end. (tin -tinier)

Comparative of Inequality  We can form the comparatives using the formula:   More / Less + Adjective / Adverb / Noun + that.   Examples:   Marta is smarter than Sofia. (adjective)  She writes slower than the rest of her classmates. (adverb)  Marta and Natalia have more friends than Sofia. (noun)  Pablo is less cheerful than Pedro. (adjective)  Pedro arrived less late than Franco. (adverb)  Franco and Juan have fewer friends than Diego. (noun)   When the comparison is followed by a number, + More / Less DE is used.  but when the sentence is negative, use More / Less + than.   Examples:   I have more than five thousand pesos in my pocket.  I have no more than five thousand pesos in my pocket.  There are less than ten thousand people protesting.  There are only ten of my people protesting  Equality Comparatives  To compare features with different people or objects. We use the formula   TAN + ADJECTIVES / ADVERBIO + COMO   Tom is as naughty as Ivan.  The building is as tall as a tree.  EQU...

               Superlative level     The superlative degree is the degree of the adjective or the adverb that expresses the meaning of these in its greatest intensity.    Recall that the DRAE does not collect the regular training superlatives, without implying that they are incorrect.   1  The superlative degree in adjectives   The superlative degree of the adjective can be expressed in several ways:   Adding in front of the adjective the adverb of quantity very.   very big   very smart   very difficult   By derivation, adding the suffixes -simply, -simply, -strug, -full.   great   very smart   very difficult   very poor   very famous   In popular speech, prefixing is often used as well. Some of the prefixes used are: requete-, sobre-, super- or extra-.   requeteguapo   superamable   well-known   extravagant   Through other formal resources. For example, adding some adverb (superlative periphrastic):   quite big   extraordinarily intelligent   horribly difficult   truly impressive   im...
