Comparatives
To compare two things using adjectives use the following expressions. **Note that the adjective agrees in gender and number with the noun that comes first.
más + adjective + que = more ……than                          ex: Mi abuela es más artística que mi padre.
My grandma is more artistic than my father.
menos + adjective + que =  less …….than                       ex: El profesor es menos divertido que yo.
The teacher is less fun than I am.
tan + adjective + como = as…..as                                      ex: Tus hermanas son tan serias como el profesor.
Your sisters are as serious as the teacher.
**When making a comparison WITHOUT an adjective, use these phrases:
más que….. = more than….                                               ex: Me gusta ir a la biblioteca más que el gimnasio.
I like to go to the library more than to the gym.
menos que….. =  less than….                                              ex: Me gustan la pizza menos que los tacos.

tanto como….. = as much as…..                                           ex: ¿Te gusta leer tanto como escribir?
Do you like to read as much as write?
**Adjectives with irregular comparative forms:
bueno(a) →  mejor  = better     (not more good)
malo(a) → peor  =  worse
joven → menor = younger
viejo(a) → mayor  = older
*To make any of the above adjectives plural (if the people/things you mention first is plural)  add “es” to the end
