英语中比较级和最高级的解释

比较级(Comparative Degree)就是将二者进行比较产生的词形，是由形容词原级转化而来的，一般是在原级后面加er,也有一些不规则的转化，比如good—better，bad—worse，有很多。相对二者的比较，还有三者及以上的比较，这时就产生了最高级。

在英语中通常用下列方式表示的词：在形容词或副词前加more(如 more natural,more clearly )或加后缀 -er(newer,sooner )。典型的是指形容词或副词所表示的质、量或关系的增加。英语句子中，将比较两个主体的方法叫做“比较句型”。其中，像“A比B更……”的表达方式称为比较级。组成句子的方式是将形容词或副词变化成比较级的形态。

比较级什么时候用more什么时候加er

按照比较级的构成规则，一般在词尾加“er”表达比较级的是：单音节形容词和部分双音节词(大多是以y、ly、er、ow、ble结尾的双音节形容词);而多音节词(三音节及以上)和部分双音节词，则会在词前加“more”。

英语比较级和最高级的用法

一、形容词、副词的比较级和最高级的构成规则

1.一般单音节词和少数以-er，-ow结尾的双音节词，比较级在后面加-er，最高级在后面加-est;

(1)单音节词

如：small→smaller→smallest short→shorter→shortest

tall→taller→tallest great→greater→greatest

(2)双音节词

如：clever→cleverer→cleverest narrow→narrower→narrowest

2.以不发音e结尾的单音节词，比较在原级后加-r，最高级在原级后加-st;

如：large→larger→largest nice→nicer→nicest able→abler→ablest

3.在重读闭音节(即：辅音+元音+辅音)中，先双写末尾的辅音字母，比较级加-er，最高级加-est;

如：big→bigger→biggest hot→hotter→hottest fat→fatter→fattest

4.以“辅音字母+y”结尾的双音节词， 把y改为i，比较级加-er，最高级加-est;

如：easy→easier→easiest heavy→heavier→heaviest

busy→busier→busiest happy→happier→happiest

5.其他双音节词和多音节词，比较级在前面加more，最高级在前面加most;

如：beautiful→more beautiful→most beautiful

different→more different→most different

easily→more easily→most easily

注意：(1)形容词最高级前通常必须用定冠词 the，副词最高级前可不用。

例句： The Sahara is the biggest desert in the world.

(2) 形容词most前面没有the，不表示最高级的含义，只表示"非常"。

It is a most important problem.

=It is a very important problem.

6.有少数形容词、副词的比较级和最高级是不规则的，必须熟记。

如：good→better→best well→better→best

bad→worse→worst ill→worse→worst

old→older/elder→oldest/eldest

many/much→more→most little→less→least

far →further/farther→ furthest/farthest

1.“A + be +形容词比较级 + than + B” 意思为“A比B更……”。

如：This tree is taller than that one. 这棵树比那棵树高。

注意：

① 在含有连词than的比较级中，前后的比较对象必须是同一范畴，即同类事物之间的比较。

②在比较级前面使用much，表示程度程度“强得多”。

如：A watermelon is much bigger than an apple.

③ very, quite一般只能修饰原级，不能修饰比较级。

2.“比较级 + and + 比较级”或“more and more +原级”表示“越来越……”
