Its formation contains the <strong>adjective + suffix (-er)<\/strong> or the word \u201c<strong>more<\/strong>\u201d before the adjective. So, theoretically, any adjective can act as a comparative adjective, as long as it fulfils the rule of formation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look at the example given below for a better understanding:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Adjective<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Comparative<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Big<\/td><td>Bigger<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Fast<\/td><td>Faster<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Intelligent<\/td><td>More Intelligent<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Comparative Adjectives \u2013 English Grammar Lessons\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wXiD0FdON7k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Source: Ellii<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-the-3-types-of-comparative-adjectives\"><span id=\"what-are-the-3-types-of-comparative-adjectives\">What are the 3 Types of Comparative Adjectives?<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are three types of Comparative Adjectives you can apply to your writing, speech, or any other occasion:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Regular Comparative Adjectives<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Irregular Comparative Adjectives<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Periphrastic Comparative Adjectives<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>However, to know in detail about these types of adjectives, you should check the information available henceforth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-regular-comparative-adjectives\"><span id=\"regular-comparative-adjectives\">Regular Comparative Adjectives<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To make comparisons with the Regular Comparative Adjectives, you need to add the suffix \u201c<strong>-er<\/strong>\u201d to the end of adjectives. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Adjective<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Comparative<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Cold<\/td><td>Colder<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Expensive<\/td><td>More Expensive<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-irregular-comparative-adjectives\"><span id=\"irregular-comparative-adjectives\">Irregular Comparative Adjectives<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, some adjectives have irregular forms. In other words, you would get a new word after making the comparison as demonstrated in the example below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Adjective<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Comparative<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Good<\/td><td>Better<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bad<\/td><td>Worse<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Far<\/td><td>Farther\/Further<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Little<\/td><td>Less<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Much<\/td><td>More<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-periphrastic-adjectives\"><span id=\"periphrastic-adjectives\">Periphrastic Adjectives<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike Regular and Irregular ones, the formation of Periphrastic Adjectives requires you to add \u201c<strong>more<\/strong>\u201d before the adjective. Moreover, this is applicable to wordy adjectives or the ones containing&nbsp; \u201c<strong>y<\/strong>\u201d at the end.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a look at the following examples for a better understanding:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Adjective<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Comparative<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Expensive<\/td><td>More Expensive<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Intelligent<\/td><td>More Intelligent<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Beautiful<\/td><td>More Beautiful<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background\">Learn About the <strong>Degree of Comparison Rules<\/strong> Here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-comparative-adjectives-rules\"><span id=\"comparative-adjectives-rules\">Comparative Adjectives Rules<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Learning all about the types of Comparative Adjectives will surely enhance your knowledge. However, there are certain rules you need to be aware of while implying these adjectives into usage. So, let\u2019s take a look at the specific rules of this Adjective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background\"><strong>Rule 1:<\/strong> Use the Comparative degree to <strong>compare<\/strong> \u2018<strong>two\u2019 things<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example:<\/strong> <em>My new car is <\/em><em>faster<\/em><em> than my old one.<\/em>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background\"><strong>Rule 2: <\/strong>Be sure to include<strong> &#8220;than<\/strong>&#8221; to indicate what you are comparing something to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example:<\/strong> <em>Sam has become <\/em><em>smarter than<\/em><em> he used to before. <\/em>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-pale-ocean-gradient-background has-background\"><strong>Rule 3: <\/strong>When using the<strong> Superlative degree<\/strong>, be sure to include the article <strong>\u2018the\u2019<\/strong> that you are talking about the most or least.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example: <\/strong><em>This is <\/em><em>the best<\/em><em> book I have ever read.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-examples-of-comparative-adjectives\"><span id=\"examples-of-comparative-adjectives\">Examples of Comparative
