Lesson 4 Revise and Improve
COMPARATIVES & SUPERLATIVES
I am amazing!
I am better, smarter and more powerful than you!
I am the greatest, the most wonderful of them all!

Let’s take a look:
1. When talking about the difference between two things or people, we use comparatives:
The blue one is big, but the red one is bigger. The red one is bigger than the blue one.
2. When talking about the difference among three or more things or people, we use superlatives:
The blue one is big, the red one is bigger, but the green one is the biggest.
3. Spelling Rules.
Adjectives with only one syllable, or ending in y or w; Add ~er/ ~est or change y to i and add ~er/ ~est.
short —shorter—shortest, early —earlier—earliest, shallow—shallower—shallowest
Adjectives with more than one syllable; Use more/ the most in front of the adjective.
interesting— more interesting —the most interesting
important —more important —the most important
‘good’, ‘bad’ and ‘far’
good— better —best bad —worse —worst
far —farther—farthest OR far—further—furthest

Now you try:
1. Taxis are expensive, trains are more expensive, but airplanes are the most expensive.
2. Third Street is narrow, Fifth Street is narrower, but Tenth Street is the narrowest.
3. The Moon is far, Mars is farther, but the Sun is the farthest.
4. He is strong, his friend is stronger, but I am the strongest.
