Comparison Degree

Par 1 Understanding 

The Definition of Degrees of Comparison

Degrees of comparison is an English grammar point we refer to when we are comparing one object with others. When we use degrees of comparison, we generally change the form of adjectives or adverbs we use to describe things or activities according to a certain comparison level—hence the name. 

For an English learner, knowing this grammar point, what it is for, and how to use it is very important because object comparison is a very common conversation topic. In conversation, we often make comparison sentences about two or more objects. Objects we can compare using degrees of comparison can range from inanimate to living objects. We then describe which one has more “quality” than the others. 

There are three degrees of comparison: positive degree, comparative degree, and superlative degree. We apply certain grammatical patterns or rules to signify different degrees of comparison in a sentence; the pattern applied for one degree is different from the others. Let’s take a closer look at them one by one!

Three Degrees of Comparison Patterns and Examples

• Positive Degree

This is the simplest form among three degrees of comparison because, well, you’re not really comparing. A positive degree is what you use when you’re describing an equal state between two objects. You can use the phrase ‘as … as’ in a sentence to signify a positive degree. Below are some examples of a positive degree:

• I want to look as beautiful as my mother.

• You should practice football as often as you can.

• Bambang looks as handsome as Sumanto.

• Comparative Degree

This degree is used to compare two objects in one sentence using an adjective. We usually either add the suffix –er or –ier to the adjective or the word more before it to signify a comparison degree. For example, we turn the adjective angry into angrier. We can also use a comparative degree to compare two activities with an adverb. We usually add the word more before the adverb. Below are some examples of a comparative degree:

• The road is more slippery than you think.

• Learning Indonesian is easier than learning English.

• Superlative Degree

Superlative means “the most”. This degree is used to show which one among three or more objects has the most “quality”. To signify a superlative degree, we usually either add the suffix –est to the adjective or add the most before it. For example, we turn the adjective happy into happiest. Below are some examples of a superlative degree:

• Eko is the laziest student in my school.

• Among the three footballers, Eko is the shortest.

How to Use Degrees of Comparison

As mentioned, we generally add -er/-est or more/most to an adjective or adverb for comparative and superlative degrees. However, different adjectives/adverbs need different patterns. 

First, we usually use -er/-est with adjectives/adverbs that have only one syllable, such as slow, fast, cheap, and large. Next, we can use either -er/-est or more/most with adjectives/adverbs that have two syllables, such as famous, happy, clever, and easy. Finally, we usually use more/most with adjectives/adverbs that have three syllables, such as delicious, expensive, comfortable, and dangerous.

However, there are adjectives/adverbs that are irregular, so they don’t follow the rules above. They usually have fixed forms for both comparative and superlative degrees which can’t be changed, for example good-better-the best.

We hope that after learning the meaning, different types, and examples of degrees of comparison above, now you have improved your English ability a little bit. You can practice using them in your everyday conversation to distinguish and get used to different situations.

The comparative and the superlative

Comparative adjectives

Comparative adjectives are used to compare differences between the two objects they modify (larger, smaller, faster, higher). They are used in sentences where two nouns are compared, in this pattern:

Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than + noun (object).

The second item of comparison can be omitted if it is clear from the context (final example below).

Test your knowledge

Examples

• My house is larger than hers.

• This box is smaller than the one I lost.

• Your dog runs faster than Jim's dog.

• The rock flew higher than the roof.

• Jim and Jack are both my friends, but I like Jack better. ("than Jim" is understood)

Superlative adjectives

Superlative adjectives are used to describe an object which is at the upper or lower limit of a quality (the tallest, the smallest, the fastest, the highest). They are used in sentences where a subject is compared to a group of objects.

Noun (subject) + verb + the + superlative adjective + noun (object).

The group that is being compared with can be omitted if it is clear from the context (final example below).

Examples

• My house is the largest one in our neighborhood.

• This is the smallest box I've ever seen.

• Your dog ran the fastest of any dog in the race.

• We all threw our rocks at the same time. My rock flew the highest. ("of all the rocks" is understood)

Forming regular comparatives and superlatives

Forming comparatives and superlatives is easy. The form depends on the number of syllables in the original adjective.

One syllable adjectives

Add -er for the comparative and -est for the superlative. If the adjective has a consonant + single vowel + consonant spelling, the final consonant must be doubled before adding the ending.

Adjective

Comparative

Superlative

tall

taller

tallest

fat

fatter

fattest

big

bigger

biggest

sad

sadder

saddest

Two syllables

Adjectives with two syllables can form the comparative either by adding -er or by preceeding the adjective with more. These adjectives form the superlative either by adding -est or by preceeding the adjective with most. In many cases, both forms are used, although one usage will be more common than the other. If you are not sure whether a two-syllable adjective can take a comparative or superlative ending, play it safe and use more and most instead. For adjectives ending in y, change the y to an i before adding the ending.

Adjective

Comparative

Superlative

happy

happier

happiest

simple

simpler

simplest

busy

busier

busiest

tilted

more tilted

most tilted

tangled

more tangled

most tangled

Three or more syllables

Adjectives with three or more syllables form the comparative by putting more in front of the adjective, and the superlative by putting most in front.

Adjective

Comparative

Superlative

important

more important

most important

expensive

more expensive

most expensive

Irregular comparatives and superlatives

These very common adjectives have completely irregular comparative and superlative forms.

Adjective

• You play tennis better than I do.

• This is the least expensive sweater in the store.

• This sweater is less expensive than that one.

• I ran pretty far yesterday, but I ran even farther today.

Part 4. Dialogue

Dialog 1

Vivy: Rahma, Do you want to go shopping with me?
Rahma: Oh, sure. I am not busy now. Let’s go.
(They go to the center of soaps in the city.)
Vivy: Hey, Rahma. Look at those soaps. This store gives big discount. I can
save more money if I buy them.
Rahma: Wait! We need to see the other stores first to compare the price. I am
not sure that those are cheaper.
Vivy: Well, okay. Let’s see.
Rahma: Here, Vivy. See it. It is cheaper than the soaps that we found in the
previous store and I think its quality is better. Hmm, I love the scent. I
think I am going to buy it. How about you?
Vivy: I don’t know. I haven’t decide yet.
Rahma: Let’s see the others.
Vivy: Rahma, look at this. It is more expensive than the first soap we found but the quality is worse. I think I love the first one even though yours is cheaper.
Rahma: It’s okay, vy. Choose the one you love.
Vivy: Alright. I like your words.
Rahma: I know I’m good at words.

Dialog 2

Ganesh: Sasha and Lily, I am confused in deciding the theme of our school’s farewell
party. Do you have any idea?
Sasha: I have thought about this since last week.

Ganesh: What is that?

Sasha: How about Hero? So, we will ask the participant to dress in formal way and they need to bring the poster of their heroes. We promote nationalism and the value of gratitude to our country.

Ganesh: That’s cool. How about you, Lily? Do have any opinion?

Lily: I am thinking about local wisdom and culture.

Ganesh: Can you describe it?

Lily: The dress code must be traditional costume and we can show several art performances from some regions of our country, and don’t forget to campaign about think globally act locally.

Sasha: I like your idea, Lily. It is greater than mine.

Lily: Really? I am not quite sure since I agree on your idea. Hero theme is more amazing.

Ganesh: Well, please stop the compliment war. Your ideas are incredible, girls. I will consider those themes.

Sasha: Why don’t you decide it now? Don’t take more time because our teachers will ask us about the progress of the event today.

Lily: Yeah, that’s right. So which one do you choose Ganesh?

Ganesh: Actually, I have the same idea with Sasha. I think hero theme is closer to red line of our event, that is thanking teachers.

Lily: Yup, I agree. Hero theme is more appropriate than the themes that we have discussed.

Sasha: Alright. Wrap it!

Dialog 3
Milea : Bastian, do you remember when we were kids? Who is taller? 

Bastian : I do remember it. Of course I’m taller than you. 

Milea : Is that true? I don’t think so. See this picture. It was our childhood. This is me and that is you. Absolutely, I am taller than you. I am smarter than you. I am better at playing badminton than you.

Bastian : That condition was when I was a kid. Now, I am handsome, I am a captain of soccer team at school, and I am taller than you. Now is more important than past.

Milea : Justification never ends. You always beat what I say. It’s fine since you are my younger brother. Please be my guardian forever. 

Bastian : Don’t worry. I will always do that no matter what. 

Milea : Thank you, my little big brother.
Dialog 4
Jake: Hey, guys! I just got a new gaming chair. It’s way more comfortable than my old one.

Maya: Nice! I need a new chair too. Mine is pretty basic and not as supportive. How does yours compare to a regular office chair?

Jake: It’s definitely better for long gaming sessions. The lumbar support is way better, and it looks cooler too!

Liam: I wish I could get a new chair. My desk is cluttered with stuff, so I could use a clean-up instead. How does your desk compare to mine, Jake?

Jake: Mine is much tidier! I have these drawer organizers that help a lot. Your desk always looks more like a tornado hit it, Liam!

Liam: Ha! Yeah, I tend to just pile things up. Maybe I need to take a page from your book. Maya, how’s your setup?

Maya: My desk is pretty organized, but I really want a better monitor. The one I have is so small, it’s hard to work on for long periods.

Jake: A bigger monitor would definitely help! I think that’s a great investment. Is it less functional than a laptop screen?

Maya: Definitely! A bigger monitor is more convenient for multitasking. I’d say it’s way better for studying too.

Liam: I might need to rethink my setup after hearing this! You guys have some good ideas.
