Comparative Adjectives

We use comparative adjectives to compare two nouns. Add -er to the end of one or two-syllable adjectives, followed by than.

​

Example:

​That tree is taller than our house.

For adjectives with more than two syllables, we use more before the adjective, followed by than. 

​Example:

​Finishing school is more important than anything else. 

​Practice time!
