  MAKING COMPARISONS – COMPARATIVE ADJECTIVES

  İki şey karşılaştırılırken sıfatlar kullanılır ve karşılaştırma cümlelerinde bu kullanılan sıfatların hece sayıları önemlidir.

  When comparing two things, adjectives are used, and the number of syllables in these adjectives is important in comparative sentences.

  For single-syllable adjectives, “er” is added to the end of the adjective, which adds a “more” meaning to the sentence.

  old -> older

  small -> smaller

  fast -> faster

  For adjectives with two or more syllables, the word “more” is placed in front of the adjective, which adds a “more” meaning to the sentence.

  beautiful -> more beautiful

  generous -> more generous

  stubborn -> more stubborn

  Note 1: If a single-syllable adjective ends with a “silent letter + y,” when adding the “er” suffix, the “y” is dropped and replaced with “ier.”

  lazy -> lazier

  funny -> funnier

  easy -> easier

  Note 2: For single-syllable adjectives ending in “vowel + consonant,” double the final consonant and then add the “-er” suffix.

  big -> bigger

  fat -> fatter

  slim -> slimmer

  Some adjectives are irregular. In these cases, the regular rules for short or long adjectives don’t apply. These adjectives completely change when used in comparative sentences, and there is no specific rule for their transformation.

  good -> better

  bad -> worse

  little -> less

  many/much -> more

  far -> farther/further

  In comparative sentences, “than” must always be used after the adjectives.

  Example:

  Erzurum is colder than Antalya.

  Sema is slimmer than Aysun.

  My sister is funnier than my brother.

  My father is more stubborn than my mother.

  Defne’s English is better.
