DEFINITION OF COMPARATIVES 

The Comparative is the form of an adjective or adverb used to compare two things. To create a comparative, in short adjectives add

-er to the end, and longer ones usemore before the adjective

EXAMPLES Stella is a smaller dog than Bruno so she usually loses the fight over dog treats. (Stella is compared to Bruno.)

Trey is more handsome than any movie star I’ve ever seen. (Trey is compared to a

movie star.)
