Comparisons

2
00:00:12,949 --> 00:00:22,949
We use the comparative form of adjectives to show the difference between two things.

3
00:00:22,949 --> 00:00:25,949
Tom is taller than John.

4
00:00:25,949 --> 00:00:33,950
Tom is a short adjective, so we add "-er to it. We include the word than after "-er to show the comparison.

5
00:00:33,950 --> 00:00:37,950
Sara is happier than Mary.

6
00:00:37,950 --> 00:00:48,950
Happy is a short adjective that ends in Y, so we change the Y into an I and add air to it. Don't forget to include that.

7
00:00:48,950 --> 00:00:52,950
The house is more expensive than the car.

8
00:00:52,950 --> 00:01:01,950
Expensive is a long adjective, so we only add the word more before it and the word than after it.

9
00:01:01,950 --> 00:01:14,450
We use the superlative form of the adjective to express that something or someone is the most of a group.

10
00:01:15,969 --> 00:01:19,090
Peter is the tallest boy in the class.

11
00:01:20,510 --> 00:01:24,950
Tall is a short adjective, so we add "-ist at the end.

12
00:01:25,170 --> 00:01:31,530
We also have to include "-te before the adjective to show that it is a superlative.

13
00:01:31,530 --> 00:01:35,569
Ana is the happiest girl in her family.

14
00:01:37,069 --> 00:01:45,030
Happy is a short adjective ending in Y, so we change it into an I, and not ist at the end.

15
00:01:45,370 --> 00:01:47,569
We also include the word before it.

16
00:01:49,069 --> 00:01:51,450
The house is the most expensive.

17
00:01:53,329 --> 00:01:59,750
Expensive is a long adjective, so we only add the words the most before the adjective.

18
00:01:59,750 --> 00:02:02,769
Irregular adjectives

19
00:02:02,769 --> 00:02:06,909
There are some adjectives that don't follow the rules

20
00:02:06,909 --> 00:02:18,669
