Comparatives: bigger, smaller - Inglés 5º Primaria

5.º Primaria · Inglés · 10-11 años · 20 min

Compara en inglés personas, animales, lugares y cosas con -er, -ier o more… than.

Para comparar dos cosas usamos adjetivo + -er + than: A bike is smaller than a car. Si el adjetivo tiene una sílaba y acaba en consonante + una sola vocal + consonante, doblamos la última consonante (big → bigger, hot → hotter); si tiene dos vocales o acaba en -w, no se dobla (cool → cooler, new → newer). Si acaba en consonante + -y, cambiamos la -y por -ier (funny → funnier).

Con los adjetivos largos usamos more + adjetivo: This book is more interesting than that one.

Pablo's flat is smaller than my house, but it has got a big terrace. Pablo says Madrid is more exciting than London. I don't agree!
