Grammar:Review of the comparatives and superlatives adjectives.
- Comparatives: We use than when we want to compare one thing with another:
- Superlatives :We use the with superlative adjectives:
- We usually add–er and–est to one-syllable words to make comparatives and superlatives: Example: old-older -the oldest
- If an adjective ends in a vowel and a consonant, we double the consonant:Example: hot- hotter– the hottest
- If an adjective ends in a consonant and–y,we change–y to–i and add –er or –est: Example: happy -happier– the happiest
- We use more and most to make comparatives and superlatives for most two syllable adjectives and for all adjectives with three or more syllables:
- Example: famous- more famous – the most famous
- Irregular adjectives: Good- better- the best
- Bad – worse – the worst
Speaking: Create sentences using the comparative and superlative form.
Example: Claudia is taller than Markel. Hodei is the tallest in the class.
