ADJECTIVES AND COMPARATIVES

 


My dear studets I wish you a wonderfull wednesday. God bless you.

Today we are going to practice with a reading activity.

Write in your notebook 📖✏


ADJECTIVES

We can use adjectives to describe people, places and things.

We've got a small car.
I saw a white bird.
This book isn't very old.

How to use them
We don't add s to the adjective when it's plural.

My brothers are short.
We've got three black cats.
She watched some old films.

Put size adjectives before colour adjectives.

I've got a big, blue ball.
That building is tall and grey.

COMPARATIVES

We can use comparatives to compare things
Cats are faster than mice.
Science is more difficult than maths.

STRUCTURE
SUBJECT + COMPARATIVE ADJECTIV+THAN+SUBJECT

For adjectives with one syllable, add er 
  • tall - taller 
I'm taller than my brother
  • big - bigger
My room is bigger than my sister's room.

For adjectives with two syllables which end in y, take away the y and add ier 
easy - easier - the easiest
My room is bigger than my sister's room.

For other adjectives with two or more syllables, use more
interesting - more interesting
That book is more interesting than my homework. 

The adjectives good, bad and far have special forms.
good - better 
bad - worse 
far - further 

PRACTICE
