Double comparatives:
the more... the faster...
Grammar unit 9
2
A double comparative compares two actions and can be used to show cause and effect
3
The structure:
The (comparative adjective)+ (noun), the more + (noun) + (subject)+ (verb)
Example: The more difficult the problem, the more creativity you need.
The (comparative adjective) + (noun), the less + (noun) + (subject) + (verb)
Example: The easier the problem, the less time you need to solve it.
*In both examples, the first half of the sentence describes a cause (the problem is difficult; the problem is easy). The second half of the sentence describes an effect (you need more creativity; you need less time).
