Vocabulary Learning
⚡ The Power of 'Comparison'
To reach A2, you need to show how two things are different. This text shows us how to do that using Adjectives.
1. The Basic Rule When we compare a small thing to a big thing, we often add -er to the word.
- Cheap Cheaper
- Small Smaller
2. From the Text
- "It is a cheaper choice than Apple laptops."
3. The 'Opposites' Scale Look at how the text balances the two laptops:
| XPS 13 | XPS 14 |
|---|---|
| Small / Light | Big / Heavy |
| Cheap | Expensive |
4. Adding 'Very' If something is not just expensive, but really expensive, we add very before the word: "this laptop is very expensive"
