【英语语法百宝箱】形容词比较级

在开始今天的分享之前,先来看几个我在看"咬文嚼字"时收获的句子:

The more things change, the more they are the same.

事物变化越多,它们就越相似。


涨芝士Part:

The more...the more...= "越……就越……"

the 用在形容词或副词的比较级前, more代表形容词或副词的比较级.

The more he gets, the more he wants.

他越来越贪.

The more she learns, the more she wants to learn.

她越学越想学.

Part 3  比较级的变换规则

在开始讲比较级的变换规则之前,

我觉得很有必要普及一下两个概念:

单音节 & 多音节

【定义】

单音节:在一个单词中,只有一个元音字母发音

多音节:在一个单词中,有两个及以上的元音字母发音


【变化规则1】

一般单音节词和少数以-er, -ow结尾的双音节词,比较级在原级后加-er构成

(1)单音节词

如:small→smaller short→shorter

tall→taller great→greater

(2)双音节词

如:clever→cleverer slow→slower

The woman is cleverer than the man is.

这女人比这男人聪明。

【变化规则2】

以不发音e结尾的单音节词,比较在原级后加-r构成

如:large→larger nice→nicer


【变化规则3】

在重读闭音节(即:辅音+元音+辅音)中,先双写末尾的辅音字母,比较级加-er

如:big→bigger hot→hotter fat→fatter

【例句】The man in the middle is fatter than the other two.

【变化规则4】

以“辅音字母+y”结尾的双音节词,把y改为i,比较级加-er

如:easy→easier heavy→heavier

busy→busier happy→happier


【变化规则5】

其他双音节词和多音节词,比较级在前面加more;

如:beautiful → more beautiful

different → more different
