Let’s begin

Adjectives are words used to describe people,

objects and places. Adjectives go before the noun.
Adjectives can express a degree of comparison:
positive, comparative or superlative. A degree of
comparison is used to give emphasis to something.
Comparative Adjetives
To compare, we identify characteristics that could
be similar or different from one person, object or
place to another. We use positive adjectives to
indicate simple quality of people, objects and
places without comparison or relation to increase or
diminution. We use the comparative adjectives for
comparing two things and the superlative
adjectives for comparing three or more things. A
superlative is a grammatical descriptor that implies
something surpasses everything else
1. This restaurant is _________ than the other one.
a) more big b) bigger

2. My uncle is _________ than my mother.

a) more old b) older

3. This movie is _________ than the other one.

a) more boring b) boringer

4. The meal that Marta made is _________ than the

Adjetivos Comparativos en Inglés I:
'Más' y 'El más‘.
Es muy común comparar cosas utilizando adjetivos,
por ejemplo: ‘Ese coche es pequeño pero el otro es
más pequeño’. Éstos se llaman adjetivos
comparativos.
También vale la pena aprender la forma superlativa
de los adjetivos, con relación a su forma comparativa,
ya que están relacionadas. Por ejemplo en el caso del
adjetivo 'pequeño', 'más pequeño' es la forma
comparativa y ‘el más pequeño’ es la forma
superlativa.
Reglas para el Uso de los
Comparativos y Superlativos.
1. En inglés, a la mayoría de los adjetivos se les añade un ‘er’ al final para formar el
comparativo y ‘est’ para formar el superlativo. Por ejemplo:

My apartment is small
Mi apartamento es pequeño

My brother’s apartment is smaller

El apartamento de mi hermano es más pequeño

Amanda’s apartment is the smallest

El apartamento de Amanda es el más pequeño
 Adjetivo Comparativo Superlativo
Long – largo Longer Longest
Short – corto/bajo Shorter Shortest
Old – viejo Older Oldest
Young – joven Younger Youngest
High – alto Higher Highest
Low – bajo Lower Lowest
Cheap - barato Cheaper Cheapest
Fast - rápido Faster Fastest
Slow – lento Slower Slowest
Wide – ancho Wider Widest
Narrow – estrecho Narrower Narrowest
Strong – fuerte Stronger Strongest
2. Si el adjetivo termina en ‘e’, sólo se añade una ‘r’ para el comparativo y 'st'
para el superlativo:

This salesman is nice but the first one was nicer

Este vendedor es amable pero el primero era más amable.

However, the secretary was the nicest

Sin embargo, la secretaria era la más amable

Adjetivo Comparativo Superlativo

Nice – amable Nicer Nicest

Late – tarde Later Latest

Rare – raro/poco Rarer Rarest

común
3. Algunos adjetivos que terminan en consonante, duplican la consonante final
para formar el comparativo y el superlativo, así:

Adjetivo Comparativo Superlativo

Fat – gordo Fatter Fattest

Thin – delgado Thinner Thinnest

Hot – caliente Hotter Hottest

Big – grande Bigger Biggest

Wet – mojado Wetter Wettest

Sad – triste Sadder Saddest

4. Cuando el adjetivo termina en ‘y’, se cambia la ‘y’ por una ‘i’ y se añade al
final ‘er’ para formar el comparativo y 'est' para formar el superlativo, de la
siguiente manera:
Adjetivo Comparativo Superlativo
Sunny – soleado Sunnier Sunniest
Happy – feliz Happier Happiest
Funny – gracioso Funnier Funniest
Pretty – bonito Prettier Prettiest
Tasty – sabroso Tastier Tastiest
Dusty – empolvado Dustier Dustiest
Dirty – sucio Dirtier Dirtiest
Heavy – pesado Heavier Heaviest
Rainy - lluvioso Rainier Rainiest
Cloudy – nublado Cloudier Cloudiest
Scary – miedoso Scarier Scariest
 5. Algunos adjetivos sin embargo, no tienen una forma diferente para el
comparativo o el superlativo, y se debe usar ‘more’ y ‘most’ para formarlos. En
general son adjetivos que tienen más de dos sílabas o terminan en ‘ful’, ‘ing’,
‘ous’, ‘ive’, ‘ish’, ‘al’, ‘able’ y ‘ed’.
You were scared but I was more scared – Estabas asustado pero yo estaba más
asustado
However, my sister was the most scared – No obstante mi hermana era la más
asustada

Adjetivo Comparativo Superlativo

Beautiful – bonito More beautiful Most beautiful
Careful – cuidadoso More careful Most careful
Interesting – interesante More interesting Most interesting
Boring – aburrido More boring Most boring
Ridiculous – ridículo More ridiculous Most ridiculous
Childish – infantil More childish Most childish
Selfish – egoísta More selfish Most selfish
Delicious – delicioso More delicious Most delicious
Exciting – emocionante More exciting Most exciting
Complicated – complicado More complicated Most complicated
6. Hay tres adjetivos en inglés muy comunes que son irregulares. Ellos tienen
comparativos y superlativos completamente distintos; éstos son:

Adjetivo Comparativo Superlativo

Good – bueno Better Best
Bad - malo Worse Worst
A lot – mucho More Most

This book is bad – Este libro es malo

That one is worse – Ese es peor
However, the other book is the worst – Sin embargo, el
