There are two ways for doing the comparatives: 1-2 syllables or adjectives with 3 or more syllables.
In class we have only worked the comparitives with one or two syllables.
- Short adjectives (one syllable):
young----younger than
old-------older than
long-----longer than
small----smaller than
new-----newer than
short----shorter than
tall------taller than
fast-----faster than
- Ending in consonant + vowel + consonant:
REMEMBER THAT YOU HAVE TO DOUBLE THE LAST CONSONANT
big----bigger than
hot----hotter than
fat----fatter than
- Two syllables adjectives ending in -y:
REMEMBER THAT YOU HAVE TO CHANGE -Y FOR -I
ugly-------uglier than
noisy-----noisier than
friendly-friendlier than
happy----happier than
funny----happier than
