Unit 10
The document discusses comparative adjectives and provides rules for their formation: 1) Most adjectives are made comparative by adding "-er" or using "more" or "less" for longer words. 2) Short words ending in consonants may double the final consonant and add "-er". 3) Words ending in "y" drop the "y" and add "-ier". 4) There are also irregular comparative adjectives like "good-better", "bad-worse", and "far-further/farther".
