  1. we'll move on now to comparative adjectives.
  2. So these are another type of adjective that they are
  3. slightly different.
  4. Comparative adjectives compare to announce, so you can almost hear
  5. that in the name itself.
  6. We have com para tive or compare operative.
  7. They usually end in E.
  8. R. And that could make them easy to spot.
  9. There are some exceptions, that is, when we use the
  10. words Mawr or less on that becomes a part of
  11. the comparative adjective.
  12. So let's take a look at two examples to see
  13. what we need.
  14. This book is longer than the other one.
  15. So we're using E.
  16. R. At the end of our adjective long to compare
  17. this book with the other book To say that this
  18. book has mawr length than the other book so longer
  19. long we add e.
  20. R. To make that a comparative adjective that compares to
  21. things. Another example.
  22. English is mawr interested band maps, and here we can
  23. see that Mawr has become a part of our comparative
  24. adjective. We are comparing two subjects English on maps.
  25. On a more interesting is our comparative adjective that describes
  26. the noun of English as compared to them noun off
  27. maps. So when the words we have end with why
  28. you dropped the why and ad I This is a
  29. spelling rules that we will need to learn, especially in
  30. our own writing and when using comparative adjectives ourselves.
  31. So, for example, the word pretty becomes prettier.
  32. We dropped that y on.
  33. We replace it with an iron so we wouldn't say
  34. something like the wet clothes were dry ear today than
  35. yesterday. We can almost hear that.
  36. That doesn't sound quite right.
  37. We have to replace the why with an I.
  38. So the wet clothes were drier today than yesterday.
  39. So let's move on to an activity here.
  40. We are going to choose the comparative adjective in each
  41. off the sentences.
  42. So here are our sentences.
  43. James Work was better than Cates.
  44. Tom was more famous than Joey.
  45. The Earth is larger than the moon.
  46. This building is less modern than the other one.
  47. So, like our lost activity, we are now going to
  48. take about one minute or two minutes to read back
  49. through these sentences on write down what we think the
  50. comparative adjectives are, and you can pause the video now
  51. to have a go on if we've had a good
  52. goal at that, we're now going to go through the
  53. answers. So make sure you have written something down on
  54. Dhe. I would like you guys to tick or fix
  55. as we go through our answers.
  56. If you find that you didn't quite get this right,
  57. that's okay.
  58. Make a note off what the actual correct answer is
  59. on. We can learn it for next time.
  60. We approach the style of questions.
  61. So James work was better than cakes.
  62. This was a bit tricky, but we have the wood
  63. better. This is a comparative adjective on.
  64. It's tricky because we aren't necessarily adding e.
  65. R to an adjective we already recognize, but better is
  66. a comparative adjective.
  67. We are saying that James work is mawr good or
  68. is off a better higher quality than case.
  69. So we're comparing James.
  70. Work are now to casework, are other Now.
  71. Next, Tom was more famous, and Joey more famous is
  72. our entire comparative adjective here.
  73. So Tom has more fame than Joey does.
  74. We're comparing those to announce Tom and Joey next.
  75. The earth is larger than the moon.
  76. Larger, of course, is our comparative adjective on.
  77. We can see here that we are as in e
  78. r. To the end off the adjective large.
  79. So the earth is larger than the moon which is
  80. smaller. So we're comparing those two now the Earth and
  81. the Moon.
  82. And finally, this building is less modern than the other
  83. one less modern is our comparative agitator here.
  84. Good work.
  85. If you spotted that, we didn't quite cover it in
  86. the last part.
  87. But less is saying that we have a older building,
  88. so it is less modern we're comparing them with At
  89. our final question, this building is less modern than the
  90. other one.
  91. So less modern.
  92. Is that comparative adjective here?
  93. Very good work.
  94. If you spotted this, we didn't necessarily cover it in
  95. our last faction.
  96. But last is comparing the modernity.
  97. How modern something iss the building to the other building.
  98. So this building is older than the other building it
  99. has less newness.
  100. Okay, Yes.
  101. On our final question, this building is less modern than
  102. the other one.
  103. So of course, really good work.
  104. If you spotted less modern as like comparative adjective, just
  105. the opposite off using mawr for something.
  106. So this building is being compared to the other building
  107. by saying that it is older.
  108. It is less modern, less new, really good work.
  109. If you got all of these right, make sure you
  110. have written down the correct answer on dhe that you
  111. it's a really good work.
  112. If you've got all of these, correct, we'll move on
  113. now to our final adjective, which is our superlative adjectives.
