📝Grammar: 3A: Choosing between comparatives and superlatives

Use **comparative adjectives + than** to compare two people, places, or things. Short adjectives take **-er**; longer ones take **more**. Spelling matters: **big → bigger**, **easy → easier**, **hot → hotter**. One-syllable adjectives ending in **-ed** take **more**: **more tired**, **more stressed**. Three adjectives are irregular: **good → better**, **bad → worse**, **far → further** (use **farther** only for physical distance). To show equality, use **(not) as + adjective + as**: her recovery was as swift as his. **The same as** marks identical things: his symptoms were the same as mine.
