We use comparative adjectives to compare two or more things. We use THAN to introduce the second noun in a comparative sentence.

How to form comparative adjectives:

Rules

1 syllable 3 and more syllables 2 syllables ending in –y Irregular
Add –er Put more before adjective Remove –y and add –ier Good Bad
Old – older Cheap – cheaper Interesting – more interesting Funny – funnier Busy – busier Better Worse

Pay attention:

if an adjective ends in –e, add –r only: large – larger

if an adjective ends in a stressed syllable with a short vowel, double the final consonant: big – bigger
