1、形容词表示某一事物或人的特征,副词表示某一动作的特征。形容词和副词有三种形式:原形、比较
级、最高级。比较级:+er 最高级:the +est
两个重要特征:asas中间一定用原形,than的前面一定要+er。
2、形容词、副词比较级的规则变化如下:
(1)一般直接+er。如:tall - taller, fast - faster 单音节词如果以-e结尾,只加-r。如:late - later
(2)重读闭音节词如末尾只有一个辅音字母,须双写这个字母,再加-er。如:big - bigger, fat - fatter
(3)以辅音字母加-y结尾的词,变y为i,再加-er。如:heavy - heavier, early - earlier
(4)双音节和多音节词的比较级应在原级前加more构成。如:beautiful - more beautiful,
careful - more careful, quietly - more quietly, interesting - more interesting
(5)有些不规则变化的,须逐一加以记忆。如:good/well - better, bad/ill - worse, many/much - more, far - farther/further, old - older/elder
