• The adjectives have been changed to a suitable degree where two nouns or pronouns are compared.
• This comparison can be done by adding a suffix or prefix.
• The suffixes can be 'er', 'ier’, and prefixes can be 'more', 'most'.
• Suffixes are added when two or more things are compared while prefixes are added when comparing only one thing.
