Comparatives (explanation)

Degrees of Comparison

The comparative and superlative degrees are formed in two

ways:

 

 

 

by the suffixes •er, -est	Positive	Compara­tive	Superlative
one syllable and two syllable ending in -y, -er, -ow, -le and with the stress on the last syllable	big happy clever simple narrow	bigger happier cleverer simpler narrower	(the) biggest (the) happiest (the) cleverest (the) simplest (the) narrowest
by adding more/the most/	famous successful interesting	more famous more successful more interesting	(the) most famous (the) most suc­cessful (the) most inte­resting
before the adjec­tives   of two, three or more syllables

NOTES:

1.    The superlative form is usually preceded by the and often followed by the prepositions in or of.

London is one of the most beautiful cities in England. I am the youngest of the three children in our family.

2.    The superlative form can be used without a noun following it.

This house is the most attractive in our street.

3.    a + the superlative degree of an adjective means весьма, крайне.

This is a most boring novel. — Это весьма скучный роман.

5.    You can use -er or more … with some two-syllable adjec­tives, especially: quiet, clever, narrow, shallow, simple, common, stupid.

6.    We use the Present Perfect after the superlative degree.

This is the most reliable car that we have ever had. 1.   Gradual increase or decrease is expressed by two compara­tives joined by and:

The weather is getting colder and colder.

g.   Less and least are opposites of more and most. We use less and least with both long and short words.

A bus is less expensive than a taxi. (= A bus is cheaper than a taxi. /A bus isn ‘t as expensive as a taxi.) I feel better today, less tired.

9.    When than is followed by he/she/it + verb, we normally keep the verb, but when the second clause consists of than + I/we/you + verb, it is usually possible to omit the verb.

You are stronger than he is.

You have more free time than I/we (have).

There is/are (exercises; explanation)

There + be

Positive	Question	Negative
There is / there s There are	Is there . . . ? Ate there … ?	There is not / isn’t Theie are not / aren’t

 

— Are there many things in that room? — No, there aren’t.
— Which room’s that? — It’s the bedroom.
— Is me sister’s flat comfortable?
— How many rooms are there in her flat?

Use: You use there as the impersonal subject to show that

1.    something or somebody is / are, was / were or will be in a place.

There is a paper on the desk.

2.    something or somebody exists in a general sense.

There will be a students’ party tomorrow. In Russian the sentences like this normally start with an adver­bial modifier of place or time.

NOTE: a) There is / are, etc. stands before the subject, which usually contains a determiner, like a /an, some /any, much / many, a lot of / lots of etc. or no +one, body, thing, where.

There will be nowhere for us to go.

b) When the noun group after the verb is plural, you use a plural verb. When the noun group is singular or uncountable, you use a singular verb.

There were two people in the room. There is a cushion on the sofa.

c) In sentences with the introductory there the predicate is usually the verb to be, occasionally some other verbs are found, such as modal verbs, to seem, to appear, followed by be or have been and also to live, to come, to occur etc.

There could be a problem.

There seems to be a lot of people on campus.

Once upon a time, in a small country town there lived a

little man.

d) We use there in tag — questions.

There is some milk in the carton, isn’t there?

Tebrikler sana!!!

турецкие войска вошли в Ирак!! Несмотря на терпимость Ердогана и на не желание открывать стрельбу в Рамазан, последней каплей были вчерашние теракты устроенные  ПКК….а вообще меня приятно поразила сплоченность политических партий несмотря на разногласия и вечную вражду и их поддержка Ердогана покончить с террором и ввести войска в Ирак….хотя покончить с террором для Турции очень сложно, когда вокруг столько недоброжелателей….. Да поможет вам Господь!
