What are comparatives?\n\nWe use comparatives to compare two people, things, places, or situations.\n\nThey help us say one thing is bigger, smaller, faster, or more expensive than another thing.\n\n**Examples:**\n- A dog is bigger than a cat.\n- Today is colder than yesterday.\n- This car is more expensive than the old one.\n\n## 2. Basic comparative pattern\n\n**Structure**\n\n**Pattern:** X + be + comparative + than + Y (X = the first thing, Y = the second thing).\n\n**Example:** My brother (X) is taller than me (Y).\n\n**Examples:**\n- My brother is taller than me.\n- This book is more interesting than that one.\n- The blue bag is smaller than the black bag.\n\nIn everyday English, we often say: “taller than me \u002F him \u002F her”. (You may also hear “taller than I am”, but you don’t need it now.)\n\n## 3. Short adjectives (1 syllable)\n\nFor most short adjectives, add -er.\n\n**Examples (word change):**\n- tall → taller\n- fast → faster\n- small → smaller\n- young → younger\n\n**Sentences:**\n- My brother is taller than me.\n- This car is faster than that one.\n- My house is smaller than yours.\n\n## 3.1 Spelling rules\n\na) Adjectives ending in -e\n\nAdd only -r.\n\n**Examples:**\n- nice → nicer\n- large → larger\n\n**Sentences:**\n- This park is nicer than the other one.\n- My bedroom is larger than yours.\n\nb) Consonant + vowel + consonant (CVC)\n\nDouble the last consonant and add -er.\n\n**Examples:**\n- big → bigger\n- hot → hotter\n- thin → thinner\n\n**Sentences:**\n- My dog is bigger than yours.\n- Today is hotter than yesterday.\n\nDo not double w, x, or y.\n\nnew → newer\nslow → slower\n\na) Adjectives ending in -y\n\nChange y → i and add -er.\n\n**Examples:**\n- busy → busier\n- easy → easier\n- healthy → healthier\n\n**Sentences:**\n- My schedule is busier than before.\n- This test is easier than the last one.\n- She is healthier than last year.\n\n## 4. Longer adjectives\n\nFor many long adjectives (2+ syllables), use more\u002Fless: more expensive, more beautiful. For common adjectives ending in -y, use -ier: happy → happier, busy → busier.\n\n**Examples:**\n- more beautiful\n- less expensive\n- more comfortable\n- more difficult\n\n**Sentences:**\n- This dress is more expensive than that one.\n- English is less difficult than Mandarin.\n- My bed is more comfortable than the chair.\n\n## 5. Irregular comparatives\n\nSome adjectives are irregular.\n\n**Examples:**\n- good → better\n- bad → worse\n- far → farther \u002F further\n\n**Sentences:**\n- This food is better than yesterday’s food.\n- Today is worse than Monday.\n- The supermarket is farther than the bank.\n\nFurther can also mean “more” or “additional”.\n\n**Example:**\n- For further information, visit the website.\n\n## 6. Comparatives without “than”\n\nWe use a comparative without 'than' when the other thing is not said (it is obvious or not important).\n\nCompare: Today is colder than yesterday. \u002F It’s getting colder. (We don’t say what we compare it to.)\n\nSometimes we do not say the second thing because the comparison is already clear.\n\n**Examples:**\n- It’s getting colder.\n- This bag is heavier.\n- Your English is getting better.\n\n## 7. Key takeaways\n\n- Comparatives compare two things or people.\n- Short adjectives usually add -er.\n- Longer adjectives often use more \u002F less.\n- Many comparisons use than.\n- Some adjectives are irregular: better, worse, farther\u002Ffurther.","en","A1",22,[12],{"id":13,"name":14,"level":9,"language":8,"isCompleted":15,"completionPercentage":16,"totalExercises":17,"completedExercises":16,"vocabularyLists":18},"019aeddc-0d20-7bf8-8c69-ff7940385862","Comparatives (Basic)",false,0,2,[19],{"id":20,"title":21,"grammarTopic":22,"displayOrder":23,"vocabularyListWords":24,"isPublished":39},"019b7a3d-3942-7088-8778-4a5b3a3f73bc","Comparatives Adjectives","\u002Fapi\u002Fgrammar_topics\u002F019aeddc-0d20-7bf8-8c69-ff7940385862",16,[25,47,61,72,87,97,113,124,145,160,175,190,213,226,243,258,278,291,310,325,343,358,374,389,404,419,434,441,458,471],{"id":26,"vocabularyWord":27,"displayOrder":40},"019bcc18-1e3b-79c2-bbcf-ca8a152e734c",{"id":28,"word":29,"frequency":30,"level":31,"language":8,"audioFilePath":32,"partsOfSpeech":33,"audio":39,"audioUrl":46},"019b4697-7116-78d1-a08f-4aa28bd9e924","faster",8,"A2","tts_4f13f238144b1845_en-US.mp3",[34,41],{"id":35,"partOfSpeech":36,"definition":37,"exampleSentences":38,"isPrimary":39,"meaningOrder":40},"019b7ee2-cda5-71db-a838-0deb16404131","ADJECTIVE","More quick than something else.","She is a faster runner than her brother.\nThis car is faster than my old one.",true,1,{"id":42,"partOfSpeech":43,"definition":44,"exampleSentences":45,"isPrimary":15,"meaningOrder":17},"019b7ee2-cda5-727b-a838-0deb168f043f","ADVERB","In a quick manner.","You need to work faster to finish on time.\nHe speaks faster when he is excited.","\u002Fuploads\u002Faudio\u002Ftts_4f13f238144b1845_en-US.mp3",{"id":48,"vocabularyWord":49,"displayOrder":17},"019bcc16-b59c-75d3-88d2-e6f889c392de",{"id":50,"word":51,"frequency":30,"level":9,"language":8,"partsOfSpeech":52,"audio":15},"019bcc16-b59a-7aba-917d-da29e7390ad5","slower",[53,57],{"id":54,"partOfSpeech":36,"definition":55,"exampleSentences":56,"isPrimary":39,"meaningOrder":40},"019bcc16-cf48-7aa9-bb61-95c76a3e2d79","Not fast;
