Comparatives are used to compare two people, objects, or things in English. The basic structure is simple: we add -er to the adjective and use 'than' to connect the two things being compared. For example, 'John is taller than Mike' or 'A car is faster than a bike'. This fundamental pattern helps us express differences between two items clearly and effectively.
Short adjectives with one or two syllables follow three main rules when forming comparatives. First, we simply add -er to most adjectives, like tall becomes taller. Second, when an adjective ends with a single consonant after a single vowel, we double the consonant before adding -er, so big becomes bigger. Third, when an adjective ends in y, we change the y to i and add -er, making happy become happier. These rules help us create proper comparative forms for everyday adjectives.
Long adjectives with three or more syllables follow a different pattern. Instead of adding -er, we use 'more' before the adjective. For example, beautiful becomes more beautiful, expensive becomes more expensive, and intelligent becomes more intelligent. This pattern is much simpler than the short adjective rules because we don't change the adjective itself - we just add 'more' in front of it. Remember: short adjectives get -er, long adjectives get 'more'.
Some adjectives are irregular and don't follow the normal rules. These exceptions must be memorized. Good becomes better, not gooder. Bad becomes worse, not badder. And far becomes farther or further, not farer. These irregular forms are very common in English, so it's important to learn them well. Remember, you cannot apply the regular rules to these adjectives - they have their own special comparative forms that have been used for centuries.
Now let's see how comparatives work in real situations. We use them to compare people, like 'Sarah is smarter than John' or 'He runs faster than me'. We also compare objects, saying 'This phone is more expensive' or 'My car is older than yours'. The basic sentence pattern is always the same: subject, plus is or are, plus the comparative form, plus than, plus the object being compared to. Whether you're using short adjectives with -er, long adjectives with more, or irregular forms, this pattern stays consistent and helps you communicate comparisons clearly in English.
