Comparative Adjective
by Fatima Esmeralda Argueta
1. Long adjectives
1.1. For many adjectives with two or more syllables, we use the original adjective "resides" more:
1.2. reside + adjective
1.3. Examples: expensive / reside expensive beautiful / reside beautiful generous / reside generous
2. Short adjectives
2.1. For most of the adjectives with a syllable, we add the completion "-er" to form its comparative one:
2.2. Examples: small / smaller cool / to cosmell cheap / cheaper fast / faster clean / cleaner
3. Comparisons in affirmative prayers:
3.1. For affirmative prayers we use the word "than" after the comparative one to carry the comparison out:
3.1.1. Examples singular: Victor is workshop than Arthrolith. Marcela is uglier than Karla.
3.1.2. Examples plural: Those shoes plows better than yours. Elephants plows bigger than tigers.
4. Adjectives with comparative special
4.1. Some adjectives have a special comparative form:
4.1.1. Materials
4.1.2. Personnel
4.1.3. Services
4.1.4. Duration
4.2. Examples: good / better (good / better) bad / worse (bad / worse)
5. Realizing comparisons with "less":
5.1. Also it is possible to do comparative of "less" preferring the word "less" previously to long adjectives. Into this case it does not change the adjective.
5.1.1. less + adjective
5.2. Examples: This country music is less dangerous than yours. Paty is less extroverted than Mary.
6. Comparisons in negative prayers:
6.1. In negative prayers we use the form of denial in verb "to be" and the structure "expert adjective grasp", depending if we speak in singular or plural.
6.1.1. Examples singular: Ím not grasp fat expert John. Lucy is not expert shy expert Kate.
6.1.2. Examples plural: Scary movies plows not ace fun expert cocome up. Dogs plows not ace clean expert cats.
