Comparatives allow us to ____ two things. We make comparatives by using ____. For example, 'Mexico is hotter than England.' 'Metal is more resistant than wood.' If the adjective has one syllable (a sound in a word), then we add "er" to the end of the adjective. Examples of adjectives with one syllable are; ____, small, tall, old, new, slow. For example. I am 186cm tall and my father is 178cm tall. Therefore, I am ____ than my dad. My Dad is ____ than me. If the adjective has two syllables and ends in "y", for example; ____, lucky, ugly, easy, heavy, then we change the "y" for an "i" and add "er". For example, Whales are heavier than dolphins. I am ____ today than I was yesterday. If the adjective has three or more syllables, then we put "more" before the adjective. For example, My pretty wife is more beautiful than me! Elephants are ____ ____ than dogs. We can use the word 'less' instead of 'more' to show the ____. For example, My dad is more intelligent than me. Therefore, I am ____ intelligent than my father. We have some ____ comparatives that don't follow the rules. For example, the comparative of 'good' = 'better'. The comparative of 'bad' = 'worse'. The comparative of far = further / farther. I am ____ at English than Spanish. The comparative of fun = ____. If an adjective has a consonant as the last letter and a vowel as the penultimate letter, we put a double consonant for the comparative. For example big = ____. hot = ____. fat = ____. sad = ____. In every case, we must use the word "than" after the comparative. For example, I run faster ____ my Mum. My mum is more intelligent than me. If two things are ____, the we use a structure called 'as + adjective + as'. For example My left foot is as ____ as my right foot. We can also use this in negative form to show things aren't equal. For example, My dad ____ as ____ as me. We have many adjectives with two syllables that we just decide which rule to use by which sounds better! For example, This test is ____ than the last one. If the adjective finishes with 'ing', we use ____ for comparatives. My sister is ____ than my friend. We can use 'more' or 'less' with nouns to compare quantities. For example, Elon Musk is one of the richest men in the world. He has ____ money than me. I have ____ money than Elon Musk. Try these activities. He is ____ ____ his sister. Airplanes are ____ ____ ____ cars. Eating salad is ____ ____ eating pasta. Doing exercise is ____ ____ doing nothing. My Spanish grammar is ____ ____ my English grammar. The weather in Spain is ____ ____ the weather in England. My dad is ____ ____ me. My sister is ____ ____ my cousin. This test is ____ ____ the last one. Pop music is ____ than rock music. His dog is ____ than his cat. His car is ____ ____ as my motorbike. She ____ as ____ as her brother. I have ____ tenderness than my sister. Her mum is ____ than her father. His new movie is ____ ____ his last movie. I am ____ now than I was before. I run ____ now ____ I was before.
