COMPARATIVE ADJECTIVES
 Comparative adjectives are used to compare differences between the
two objects they modify (larger, smaller, faster, higher). They are used in
sentences where two nouns are compared, in this pattern:
Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than + noun (object).
 The second item of comparison can be omitted if it is clear from the context
(final example below).
EXAMPLES
My house is larger than hers.
This box is smaller than the one I lost.
Your dog runs faster than Jim's dog.
The rock flew higher than the roof.
Jim and Jack are both my friends, but I like Jack better. ("than
Jim" is understood)
The comparative form is used for comparing two
people or things:

He is taller than me.

I am shorter than him.

The comparative form is used for comparing two people
or things:

My puzzle is easier than Mike’s puzzle.

Mike’s puzzle is more difficult than mine.

The comparative form is used for comparing two
people or things:

A rabbit is faster than a turtle.

A turtle is slower than a rabbit.
