Good morning! we continue with the lesson 2 of unit 4. Copy the date of today in your notebook as usual, please.
Remember: Use the ballpen when you copy and PENCIL when you do the activies.
I´m going to give you the explanations in English but, for those who need extra help,
google translator can be used.
(Os voy a dar las explicaciones en Inglés, pero para aquellos que necesiten ayuda extra, pueden usar el
google traductor)
As you remember the main unit grammar is the use of COMPARATIVES.
You
must copy this in English
--------------------------------------------------------GRAMMAR-----------------------------------------
Use of comparatives
We use the comparatives to compare a characteristic between two people, animals, things, etc.
If the adjective is short (kind, mean, big, tall, ...) we only add "
-er" to it
Ex: The queen is kind
er than the king
La reina es
más amable que el rey
But if the adjective is long (generous, hard-working, beautiful,..) we use "
more" before it.
Ex. The princess is
more generous than the prince.
La princesa es
más generosa que el principe.
*Also we have
negative comparatives in which "
less"
always must be used before any adjective (short and long).
Ex. The boy is
less shy than the girl
El niño es
menos tímido que la niña
