00:02 - 00:04
we'll move on now to comparative adjectives.
00:05 - 00:09
So these are another type of adjective that they are
00:09 - 00:09
slightly different.
00:10 - 00:16
Comparative adjectives compare to announce, so you can almost hear
00:17 - 00:17
that in the name itself.
00:18 - 00:22
We have com para tive or compare operative.
00:23 - 00:26
They usually end in E.
00:26 - 00:29
R. And that could make them easy to spot.
00:31 - 00:34
There are some exceptions, that is, when we use the
00:34 - 00:39
words Mawr or less on that becomes a part of
00:39 - 00:40
the comparative adjective.
00:41 - 00:44
So let's take a look at two examples to see
00:44 - 00:44
what we need.
00:45 - 00:48
This book is longer than the other one.
00:49 - 00:50
So we're using E.
00:51 - 00:54
R. At the end of our adjective long to compare
00:54 - 00:58
this book with the other book To say that this
00:58 - 01:03
book has mawr length than the other book so longer
01:04 - 01:05
long we add e.
01:05 - 01:09
R. To make that a comparative adjective that compares to
01:09 - 01:11
things. Another example.
01:12 - 01:18
English is mawr interested band maps, and here we can
01:18 - 01:21
see that Mawr has become a part of our comparative
01:22 - 01:27
adjective. We are comparing two subjects English on maps.
01:28 - 01:32
On a more interesting is our comparative adjective that describes
01:33 - 01:37
the noun of English as compared to them noun off
01:37 - 01:43
maps. So when the words we have end with why
01:44 - 01:47
you dropped the why and ad I This is a
01:48 - 01:52
spelling rules that we will need to learn, especially in
01:52 - 01:55
our own writing and when using comparative adjectives ourselves.
01:56 - 01:59
So, for example, the word pretty becomes prettier.
02:00 - 02:01
We dropped that y on.
02:01 - 02:05
We replace it with an iron so we wouldn't say
02:05 - 02:09
something like the wet clothes were dry ear today than
02:09 - 02:11
yesterday. We can almost hear that.
02:11 - 02:12
That doesn't sound quite right.
02:13 - 02:15
We have to replace the why with an I.
02:16 - 02:20
So the wet clothes were drier today than yesterday.
02:22 - 02:25
So let's move on to an activity here.
02:25 - 02:28
We are going to choose the comparative adjective in each
02:29 - 02:29
off the sentences.
02:31 - 02:32
So here are our sentences.
02:34 - 02:35
James Work was better than Cates.
02:36 - 02:38
Tom was more famous than Joey.
02:39 - 02:41
The Earth is larger than the moon.
02:42 - 02:44
This building is less modern than the other one.
02:46 - 02:49
So, like our lost activity, we are now going to
02:49 - 02:53
take about one minute or two minutes to read back
02:53 - 02:58
through these sentences on write down what we think the
02:58 - 03:01
comparative adjectives are, and you can pause the video now
03:01 - 03:07
to have a go on if we've had a good
03:07 - 03:10
goal at that, we're now going to go through the
03:10 - 03:13
answers. So make sure you have written something down on
03:14 - 03:16
Dhe. I would like you guys to tick or fix
03:16 - 03:18
as we go through our answers.
03:19 - 03:20
If you find that you didn't quite get this right,
03:21 - 03:21
that's okay.
03:21 - 03:24
Make a note off what the actual correct answer is
03:25 - 03:27
on. We can learn it for next time.
03:28 - 03:29
We approach the style of questions.
03:30 - 03:32
So James work was better than cakes.
03:34 - 03:36
This was a bit tricky, but we have the wood
03:37 - 03:41
better. This is a comparative adjective on.
03:41 - 03:45
It's tricky because we aren't necessarily adding e.
03:45 - 03:50
R to an adjective we already recognize, but better is
03:50 - 03:51
a comparative adjective.
03:52 - 03:57
We are saying that James work is mawr good or
03:57 - 04:00
is off a better higher quality than case.
04:01 - 04:02
So we're comparing James.
04:03 - 04:05
Work are now to casework, are other Now.
04:07 - 04:12
Next, Tom was more famous, and Joey more famous is
04:12 - 04:14
our entire comparative adjective here.
04:15 - 04:18
So Tom has more fame than Joey does.
04:19 - 04:24
We're comparing those to announce Tom and Joey next.
04:24 - 04:27
The earth is larger than the moon.
04:29 - 04:31
Larger, of course, is our comparative adjective on.
04:32 - 04:33
We can see here that we are as in e
04:34 - 04:36
r. To the end off the adjective large.
04:37 - 04:41
So the earth is larger than the moon which is
04:42 - 04:45
smaller. So we're comparing those two now the Earth and
04:45 - 04:45
the Moon.
04:46 - 04:49
And finally, this building is less modern than the other
04:49 - 04:54
one less modern is our comparative agitator here.
04:54 - 04:55
Good work.
04:55 - 04:57
If you spotted that, we didn't quite cover it in
04:58 - 04:58
the last part.
04:58 - 05:02
But less is saying that we have a older building,
05:03 - 05:19
so it is less modern we're comparing them with At
05:19 - 05:23
our final question, this building is less modern than the
05:23 - 05:23
other one.
05:24 - 05:25
So less modern.
05:25 - 05:27
Is that comparative adjective here?
05:27 - 05:28
Very good work.
05:28 - 05:31
If you spotted this, we didn't necessarily cover it in
05:31 - 05:32
our last faction.
05:33 - 05:36
But last is comparing the modernity.
05:37 - 05:41
How modern something iss the building to the other building.
05:42 - 05:46
So this building is older than the other building it
05:47 - 05:49
has less newness.
05:54 - 05:58
Okay, Yes.
06:05 - 06:09
On our final question, this building is less modern than
06:09 - 06:10
the other one.
06:11 - 06:12
So of course, really good work.
06:13 - 06:16
If you spotted less modern as like comparative adjective, just
06:17 - 06:19
the opposite off using mawr for something.
06:20 - 06:23
So this building is being compared to the other building
06:23 - 06:25
by saying that it is older.
06:26 - 06:30
It is less modern, less new, really good work.
06:30 - 06:32
If you got all of these right, make sure you
06:32 - 06:35
have written down the correct answer on dhe that you
06:40 - 06:40
it's a really good work.
06:41 - 06:44
If you've got all of these, correct, we'll move on
06:44 - 06:48
now to our final adjective, which is our superlative adjectives.
