This document discusses how to form comparative adjectives in English. It explains that one-syllable adjectives add "-er", two-syllable adjectives ending in "-y" change the "-y" to "-i" and add "-er", and adjectives with three or more syllables use "more" before the adjective. It provides examples of comparisons using these rules and notes some irregular adjectives like "good", "bad", and "much" that have different comparative forms.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

1. When we talk about two things, we can "compare"
them and for this, we use comparative adjectives to
describe the differences.
2. Short adjectives Long adjectives
Add “ER” Add “MORE”
1-syllable adjectives 2-syllable adjectives not ending in -y
2-syllable adjectives ending in -y all adjectives of 3 or more syllables
There are two ways to form a comparative adjective:
3. 1-syllable adjectives
• Old → Older
• Fast → Faster
2-syllable adjectives
ending in -y
• Happy → Happier
• Easy → Easier
Variation:
• if the adjective ends
in -e, just add –r
• Late → Later
• If the adjective ends
in consonant, vowel,
consonant, double
the last consonant.
• big → bigger
4. Jhon is 42 years old Josh is 67 years old
Josh is older than Jhon.
Jhon is younger than Josh.
Remember:
For adjectives that are just one
syllable, add -er to the end.
5. Toby is a fat cat. Many is a fat cat too.
Many is fatter than Toby.
Remember:
If the adjective has a consonant +
single vowel + consonant spelling,
the final consonant must be
doubled before adding the ending.
6. Hanz is happy. Thomas is happy too.
Thomas is happier than hanz.
Remember:
For adjectives ending in y,
change the y to an i before
adding the ending.
7. For two-syllable adjectives not ending in -y
and for all three-or-more-syllable adjectives,
use the form “more + adjective.”
Adjective Comparative
important more important
expensive more expensive
tired More tired
Beautiful More beautiful
8. Jen is intelligent Tom is intelligent too.
Tom is more intelligent than Jen.
Remember:
Adjectives with three or more
syllables form the comparative by
putting more in front of the
adjective
9. These very common adjectives have
completely irregular comparative forms.
Adjective Comparative
good better
bad worse
little less
much more
far further / farther
10. Lucy´s painting Michael’s painting.
Lucy´s painting is better than
Michael’s painting. .
Remember:
It’s important to note that
there are irregular
adjectives that don’t
follow the rules above.
