45 Comparatives & Superlatives - Irregular

Adverbs

Adverbs su riječi koje imaju funkciju modifikatora drugih elemenata u rečenici. Oni mogu pružiti širok spektar informacija.

U nekim slučajevima ih koristimo za uspoređivanje između dviju stvari, ljudi ili radnji, izražavajući jednakosti ili nejednakosti među njima.

EXTRA: Adverbs = Priloga; Gradability of Adverbs = Stupnjevanje Priloga.

Postoje različiti stupnjevi komparacije Adverbs i ta stupnjevitost se izražava zahvaljujući komparativu i superlativu priloga.

ADJECTIVES ADVERBS COMPERATIVE SUPERLATIVE
bad(adj) badly(adv) worse the worst
little less the least
much more the most
good(adj) well(adv) better the best
far farther/further the farthest/furthest

Dodavanjem sufiksa -er/-est ili more/most [vidi: adjectives - comparative, adjectives - superlative].

Comparative

  • It is better for your health to use the stairs.
  • More recently, there was a problem with the internet connection in this flat.
  • Peter is listening to the radio more than before.

Superlative

  • This is one of the most frequently asked questions for these houses.
  • This garden is the worst of all we have seen.
  • The least price for this television model is €400.

Koristimo stupnjevanje priloga za usporedbu (ljudi, stvari, događaja u prošlosti etc.)

Da bi prikazali usporedbu, koristimo than prije priloga.

Prilozi su bitni jer utječu i mijenjaju druge elemente u rečenici. Ponekad koristimo priloge kod usporedbe između dviju stvari, ljudi ili radnji, izražavajući pritom jednakostii nejednakosti među njima.

(Kako bi bolje razumjeli razliku između superlativa i komparativa i upotrebu most/more, vidite: Adjectives - Comparative, Adjectives - Superlative)

Da bi pokazali da uspoređujemo, koristimo “than” prije priloga.

Npr.:
— “This song is nicer than the first one you made me listen to.”
— “This is the best song that I have listened to.”

Notices:

Non-commercial use means that users may not sell, profit from, or commercialize Books for Languages’ materials or works derived from them. That said, we have found that there are certain “gray areas” in interpreting the non-commercial provision of Creative Commons license. The guidelines below are intended to help users determine whether or not their use of Books for Languages’ materials would be permitted under the “non-commercial” restriction. Note that there are additional requirements (attribution and share alike) spelled out in our license.

Commercialization is prohibited. Users may not directly sell or profit from Books for Languages’ materials or from works derived from Books for Languages’ materials.

Example: A commercial education or training business may not offer courses based on Books for Languages’ materials if students pay a fee for those courses and the business intends to profit as a result.

Determination of commercial vs. non-commercial purpose is based on the use, not the user. Materials may be used by individuals, institutions, governments, corporations, or other business whether for-profit or non-profit so long as the use itself is not a commercialization of the materials or a use that is directly intended to generate sales or profit.

Example: A corporation may use Books for Languages’ materials for internal professional development and training purposes.

Incidental charges to recover reasonable reproduction costs may be permitted. Recovery of nominal actual costs for copying small amounts (under 100 copies) of Books for Languages’ content on paper or CDs is allowed for educational purposes so long as there is no profit motive and so long as the intended use of the copies is in compliance with all license terms. Students must be informed that the materials are freely available on the Books for Languages’ site and that their purchase of copied materials is optional.

Example: An institution in a remote area has limited Internet access and limited network infrastructure on campus, and a professor offers to create CDs of Books for Languages’ materials relevant to his/her course. The professor may recover the costs of creating the CDs.
