They are typically formed by adding “er / (i)er” to the end of an adjectives or adverbs or by using the word “more” before the adjective or adverb. 我们可以用“比较级+than”去比较两个人或者事物。比较级通常是在形容词或副词后面加“er / (i)er”,也可以在形容词或副词前加more构成。 Listen to an interview about Tina and Tara. Are the words in the box used with -(i)er or more? Complete the chart. funny (run) fast friendly (jump)
