This document discusses grammar rules for equality, comparatives, and superlatives. It explains that "as" is used to say what something really is, while "like" expresses similarity. Comparatives compare two things, and superlatives compare one thing to a group. Adjectives and adverbs form comparatives by adding "-er" and superlatives by adding "-est". Exceptions include irregular forms and two-syllable adjectives/adverbs that add "more"/"most". Other types of comparisons use phrases like "as...as", "less...than", and "much/a lot/far" to indicate equality, inferiority, and degree of difference.

Degree of comparison
Degree of comparison
The Degrees of Comparison in English grammar are made with the Adjective and Adverb words to show how big or small, high or low, more or less, many or few, etc., of the qualities, numbers and positions of the nouns (persons, things and places) in comparison to the others mentioned in the other part of a sentence or expression.
Kind of comparison :
Positive degree
Comparative degree
Superlative degree
POSITIVE DEGREE
Equal/positive degree is used to compare two things or persons which have same characteristic and feature.
The primary form of an adjective or adverb; denotes a quality without qualification,comparison, or relation to increase or diminution positive
Adjective- a word that expresses an attribute of something
Adverb- a word that modifies something other then a noun.
There are two more comparisons with the ‘positive form’ of the adjective words. They are :
(i) Degree of Equality: This comparison is used to compare two persons, animals or things to tell us that they are equal – having the same quality.
Example: There are two cats with the same height and weight, and look the same except for the colour.
Therefore we say:
The brown cat is as beautiful as the grey cat. (= Both the cats are the same.)
The word “beautiful” is an adjective in the ‘positive form’, and with the conjunction as…as it expresses the ‘degree of equality’.
(ii) Degree of Inequality: This comparison is used to compare two persons, animals or things to tell us that they are not equal – not having the same quality. Example: The brown cat is not so beautiful as the black & white cat.( They are not the same). The word “beautiful” is an adjective in the ‘positive form’, and with the conjunction so…as (and the negative ‘not’) it expresses the ‘degree of inequality’
Adjectives
This document provides information about different types of adjectives in English including:
- Adjectives of quality, quantity, number, demonstrative, interrogative, and comparison of adjectives.
- It discusses attributive adjectives and their order, as well as distinguishing adjectival participles from verbal participles. Stativity of adjectives is also covered comparing them to nouns and verbs. The summary focuses on the key types and uses of adjectives.
Adjectives & adverbs
Adjectives are words that describe or modify nouns. They can describe qualities, states of being, or quantities of nouns. Adjectives tell readers how much, how many, which, or what kind of something is being referred to. Adjectives usually precede the nouns they modify and can also follow linking verbs. They can be used attributively or predicatively and many take comparative and superlative forms. Adjectives are classified as central if they can function attributively and predicatively, or peripheral if they are restricted to only one function.

This rubric outlines criteria for evaluating student presentations ("Show and Tell") in a class. It will count for 10-15% of the final grade. Students will be assessed on the length of their presentation, the quality of their visual presentation using PowerPoint or similar tool, their grammar and vocabulary usage, and their public speaking skills. Higher scores are given for presentations that are longer than 3 minutes, use 3-4 slides with images and captions, demonstrate complex sentences and vocabulary without mistakes, and involve clear pronunciation with minimal notes. Lower scores reflect very short presentations, lack of images or proper formatting, many grammar errors, and heavy reliance on reading notes.

Present simple tenses
This document provides information on the uses of different tenses in English, including the present simple, present continuous, present perfect simple, and present perfect continuous tenses. It explains that the present simple is used for schedules, habits, general truths, feelings and emotions. The present continuous expresses future arrangements, current actions, and temporary situations. The present perfect simple is used for repeated past actions, life experiences, unfinished time periods, and completed actions relevant to the present. The present perfect continuous expresses long actions with obvious results and actions that began in the past and continue to the present.

The document demonstrates how to manipulate sentences between active and passive forms.
Active passive
The document discusses active and passive voice structures. It provides examples of changing sentences from active to passive voice in the present simple, present perfect, and future tenses. The main changes involve making the subject the recipient of the action and placing the agent of the action after "by". Examples are given for both affirmative and negative sentences. Additional sentences are provided to be changed from active to passive voice.
Modals final explanation
1. Modals are auxiliary verbs that are placed before the main verb in the infinitive form without "to", and they express modality such as prohibition, lack of necessity, ability, requests, obligation, advice, and possibility.
2. Modals cannot be conjugated for tense or person and do not have non-personal forms. Common modals include can, could, may, might, must, shall, should, would, and have to.
3. When expressing a modal verb in a different tense, a different modal form is sometimes used, such as "can" for present ability and "could" for past ability.
