Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Identify the mistake: He is more taller than his brother. (2022)
  • Step 1: Identify the adjective in the sentence. The adjective is 'tall'.
  • Step 2: Understand that 'tall' can be changed to 'taller' to compare two people.
  • Step 3: Notice that 'more' is used with some adjectives to make them comparative, but 'tall' is not one of them.
  • Step 4: Realize that 'taller' is already the comparative form of 'tall'.
  • Step 5: Conclude that saying 'more taller' is incorrect because 'taller' alone is sufficient.
  • Comparative Adjectives – Comparative adjectives are used to compare differences between the two objects they modify, typically formed by adding '-er' or using 'more' with adjectives that have two or more syllables.
