Vilay plays better than Raju

Explanation:

The adjective used in the given sentence is ‘better’. Adjectives are the parts of speech used to describe the quality or the state of being of a noun in a sentence. Adjectives modify only nouns and pronouns. There are “three degrees of comparison” in adjectives – positive, comparative, superlative.

When two entities (objects or persons) are compared with each other, then the comparative degree of an adjective is used. Comparative adjectives usually take two forms:

Formed by adding the suffix –er to the positive degree of an adjective, like thinner, lighter

Formed by introducing the word ‘more’ before the positive degree adjective, like ‘more powerful’

The word ‘than’ is usually placed between the adjective and the noun or pronoun being compared, like in the given sentence ‘Vilay plays better than Raju’
