Comparative Adjectives (3)
Adjectives are words that describe nouns. Adjectives can also be Comparative – this means that they mean “more + adjective.”
With most short adjectives (1 or 2 syllables), you add “-er.” · big - bigger · funny - funnier · fast - faster
With longer adjectives, you add the word “more.” · important - more important · interesting - more interesting · beautiful - more beautiful

*If an adjective ends in “vowel-consonant,” you have to double the consonant, then add –er. (bigger, thinner)
Write the Comparative form of the adjectives below:
