Сравнения (Comparatives and superlatives, as...as)
Учим сравнителна и превъзходна степен на прилагателните и сравнението с as...as. Кратките прилагателни получават -er и the -est (tall, taller, the tallest), а дългите получават more и the most (more difficult, the most difficult). Някои форми са неправилни: good, better, the best; bad, worse, the worst. С as...as казваме, че две неща са еднакви, а с not as...as, че едното е по-малко.
Какво да запомним
- Кратки: big, bigger, the biggest; hot, hotter, the hottest
- Дълги: more expensive, the most expensive; less = по-малко
- Неправилни: good, better, best; bad, worse, worst; far, further, furthest
- as tall as = толкова висок, колкото; not as fit as = не толкова в форма, колкото
- The more you exercise, the better you feel. (колкото повече..., толкова по-...)
Пример
Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world. = Еверест е най-високият връх в света.
