2. Describing people Comparatives and superlatives
1. What are adjectives?
Do you want to learn about English Adjectives? Simply adjectives tell us something about a person or a
thing.

Adjectives can modify nouns or pronouns/names.
person thing

DANE: 215232000020
3. Where do adjectives go?
An adjective can be put before the noun. Then it is an attribute.
person thing
Mandy is a careful girl. This is a nice car.
An adjective can be put after the verb to be (is). This is called predicative position.
person thing
The girl is careful. This car is nice.
Adjectives can go after the following verbs:
 appear
 become
 feel
 get
 go
 keep
 turn
When we speak about what something looks like, smells, sounds and tastes – we use the adjective. Mind
the difference between adjective and adverb.
 I feel great.
 She looks good.
 It seems impossible.
 The steak smells fantastic.
4. Can adjectives be used without nouns?
Yes, adjectives can be used without nouns. Mind the definite article the:
 the rich = rich people
Here is an example from the fairy tale Cinderella:
 “The good must be put in the dish, the bad you may eat if you wish.”
Here is another example with nationalities in the plural:
 The Scottish live in the North of the United Kingdom.
5. Can two or more adjectives be used together?
Yes, if you use more adjectives you can put them in front of the noun:
 a fat old cat

5. INSTITUCION EDUCATIVA TECNICA EL CERRO

DANE: 215232000020
or you can put them after the verb (e.g. to be). In this case and is placed between the last two adjectives.
 It was cold, wet and windy.
6. Adjectives, ending in -ing and -ed
There are adjectives ending in -ing and -ed. These are participle constructions, used like adjectives. Here
are some examples:
A) Here the adjective is put before the noun:
 Yesterday I read an amusing story in a magazine.
 Doris has a boring job.
 We watched the group of excited people.
B) Here the adjective is put after the verb:
 I was not at all amused by the discussion.
 Children get bored very quickly.
 The end of the film was really exciting for me.
One-syllable Adjectives
To form the comparative, we add -er to the end of the adjective.
To form the superlative, we add -est to the end of the adjective.
Adjective Comparative Superlative
small smaller the smallest
cold colder the coldest
light lighter the lightest
wide * wider the widest
hot ** hotter the hottest
* When an adjective ends in the letter E, we just add the -R (for comparatives) or -ST (for superlatives). We
do not write two Es together. Wider (correct) not wideer (incorrect).
** When an adjective ends in a consonant + short vowel + consonant (C + V + C), we normally double the
last letter. big - bigger - biggest, wet - wetter - wettest
 London is bigger than Santiago.
 Mike is taller than John but James is the tallest.
 Yesterday was the hottest day of the year.
 It is the oldest building in the village.
 I want a faster car.
Notice how comparatives are often followed by than when comparing two things or people.

6. INSTITUCION EDUCATIVA TECNICA EL CERRO
MUNICIPIO DE CHIQUIZA
NIT: 820001751-2
DANE: 215232000020
To form the comparative, we remove the -y and add -ier to the end of the adjective.
To form the superlative, we remove the -y and add -iest to the end of the adjective.
Adjective Comparative Superlative
crazy crazier the craziest
happy happier the happiest
early earlier the earliest
 It was the happiest day of my life.
 My joke was funnier than your one.
 This section is easier than the rest.
Adjectives with Two or more Syllables
For Adjectives with 2 syllables (that don't end in -y) and higher (3, 4 syllables etc), we use more for
comparatives and the most for superlatives.
Adjective Comparative Superlative
handsome more handsome the most handsome
nervous more nervous the most nervous
enthusiastic more enthusiastic the most enthusiastic
 My girlfriend is more beautiful than yours.
 Alex is more intelligent than you but I am the most intelligent.
 It was the most wonderful day I have ever had.

*** Farther - Further
Further / farther, furthest / farthest are all used for distance.
Only Further / furthest are used to mean 'additional' or 'more advanced'.
 Puerto Montt is further / farther than Valdivia is from here (in Santiago).
 If you require further information, please contact reception.
Remember that the opposites of 'more' and 'most' are 'less' and 'least', respectively.
**** Older - Eldest
We use elder / eldest when we are talking about family relationships and normally only before a noun (not
by itself unless it is a pronoun).
 He is my elder brother. (We cannot say: My brother is elder than me. - incorrect)
 The eldest sister would pass on her dresses to the younger one.
Comparative and Superlative of ILL
When comparing how ill people are, you will normally hear worse or the worst and not "iller or illest".
Some people may prefer to replace ill with sick (sicker, sickest) when comparing.

DANE: 215232000020
If you love something
“I love eating ice-cream.”
“I adore sun-bathing.”
“She’s mad about that new boy band.”
“He’s crazy about that girl.”
If you like something a lot
“She’s fond of chocolate.”
“I like swimming very much.”
“He really likes that new golf course.” (Remember to stress “really” in this sentence.)
If you like something
“He quite likes going to the cinema.”
“I like cooking.”
If you neither like nor dislike something
“I don’t mind doing the housework.”
In reply to a question if you like something or not, you can say:
“I don’t really care either way.”
“It’s all the same to me.”
If you don’t like something
“She doesn’t like cooking very much.”
“He’s not very fond of doing the gardening.”
“He’s not a great fan of football.”
“Horse-riding isn’t really his thing.”
“I dislike wasting time.”
If you really dislike something
“I don’t like sport at all.”
“He can’t stand his boss.”
“She can’t bear cooking in a dirty kitchen.”
“I hate crowded supermarkets.”
“He detests being late.”
“She loathes celery.”
Things to remember
Dislike is quite formal.
Fond of is normally used to talk about food or people.
The ‘oa’ in loathe rhymes with the ‘oa’ in boat.
Grammar Note
To talk about your general likes or dislikes, follow this pattern: like something or like
doing something.
Remember that “I’d like…” is for specific present or future wishes.
“I like swimming” = I like swimming generally.
“I’d like to go swimming this afternoon” = I want to go swimming at a specific time in the
future.
Common mistake
Be careful where you put very much or a lot. These words should go after the thing that you
like.
