What are comparative adjectives examples?
Hey, I came across this exercise with common adjectives. Could you help with the comparative forms? For example: ‘strong’ and ‘big’ — we need to fill in the comparative for sentences like 'He is much ___ than before' and 'This box is ___ than the other one.'

Hello! Here's how to form the comparative for adjectives like "strong" and "big":
- For most one-syllable adjectives, you add "-er" to make the comparative. If the adjective ends in a single consonant after a single vowel, double the consonant before adding "-er."
- For most two- and more syllable adjectives, you add "more" before the adjective.
For example:
- Strong → Stronger
- He is much stronger than before.
- Big → Bigger
- This box is bigger than the other one.
Exercise:
Fill in the blanks with the correct comparative form of the adjectives in parentheses.
- My dog is much ______ (fast) than yours.
- This problem is ______ (easy) than I thought.
- He is getting ______ (strong) every day.
- This room is ______ (large) than the one next door.
- The test was ______ (difficult) than I expected.
I hope this helps!
