UNIT 2 GRAMMAR: COMPARATIVE/SUPERLATIVE ADJECTIVES

1.- ADJECTIVES

Definition: an adjective is a word which qualifies nouns. Says something about a person, an object, an animal...

Examples of SHORT adjectives (1 SYLLABE):

SOME GAMES TO PRACTISE THE USE OF ADJECTIVES!!

  • John is 1m80. He is tall. But Chris is 1m85. He is taller than John.
  • America is big. But Russia is bigger.
  • I want to have a more powerful computer.
  • Is French more difficult than English?




2.- COMPARATIVE ADJECTIVES


Use of Comparative Adjectives

We use comparative adjectives when talking about 2 things (not 3 or 10 or 1,000,000 things, only 2 things).
Often, the comparative adjective is followed by "than".
Look at these examples:
If we talk about the two planets Earth and Mars, we can compare them as shown in the table below:
EarthMars
Diameter (km)12,7606,790Mars is smaller than Earth.
Distance from Sun (million km)150228Mars is more distant from the Sun.
Length of day (hours)2425A day on Mars is slightly longer than a day on Earth.
Moons12Mars has more moons than Earth.
Surface temperature (degrees Celcius)22-23Mars is colder than Earth.


3.- SUPERLATIVE ADJECTIVES


We use superlative adjectives when talking about one thing in a bigger group
Often, "the" follows the superlative adjective.

HUGO IS THE TALLEST IN THE CLASSROOM.

LUIS IS THE FASTEST IN THE FOOTBALL TEAM.
