Speaking: Grammar in Speaking A2 - Lesson 4: Using Comparatives (e.g., "bigger than")
Lesson 4: Spoken Comparatives Welcome to your structured speaking and grammar layout! I am your trainer, Teacher Sopheak. Over my years coordinating specialized language platforms across Battambang, I have seen that expressing clear contrast between two items relies completely on following exact adjective placement rules. Comparative Architecture: Short Modifiers: Add the -er suffix (e.g., bigger, taller, faster). Long Modifiers: Precede with the word "more" (e.g., more expensive, more interesting). Irregular Profiles: Shift form completely (e.g., good becomes better, bad becomes worse). The Double Comparison Trap Never combine the modifier 'more' with an adjective that already possesses an '-er' suffix (such as saying 'more bigger'). This introduces clear structural errors into your professional speech track.
