4 II. GRAMMAR REVIEW: Topic: More/-er or Than Omitted (5-6 minutes) "More" or "-er" is added to an adjective to change it to a comparative adjective. "Than" is usually used after the comparative adjective when two objects/nouns are being compared. Ex. My performance appraisal this year is better than last year. Two common mistakes made when comparing two objects/nouns are (1) omitting More/-er and (2) omitting than. Remember : The use of "more (adj) + than" or "(adj) -er + than" is essential when comparing only two objects/nouns. Neither should be omitted. Examples : Adjectives Common Mistakes Correct Sentence Big Happy Difficult Good Bad Farther Our new office is big than the old one. I am happy with my job now than one year ago. The last test was difficult than the test today. My TOEIC result this year is better the last one. The economic recession this year is worse last year. Your house is farther mine from the station. Our new office is bigger than the old one. I am happier with my job now than one year ago. The last test was more difficult than the test today. My TOEIC result this year is better than the last one. The economic recession this year is worse than last year. Your house is farther than mine from the station. Page 4
