💡 The 'Better' Pattern

In this story, we see words that change to show a higher quality. This is a key A2 skill.

1. Basic Word \rightarrow Better Word

  • Bad \rightarrow Badly (How they played)
  • Good \rightarrow Better (How they want to play)

2. The 'More' Trick When a word is too long, we don't add '-er'. We use MORE:

  • Careful \rightarrow More carefully
  • Risky \rightarrow More risks
