Use of MORE for Comparative Degree



Use of MORE for Comparative Degree :




The comparative degree works in three ways:


(i) you add --er


(ii) you use the word 'more' and leave the adjective unchanged.


(iii) you use a different word.


Eg: old -- older, beautiful -- more beautiful, good -- better.


The common mistake is to use 'better' with 'more'.


The word 'better' suggests the comparative -- the word 'good' is replaced by 'better' so there is no need to add the word 'more'
