Lý thuyết về các dạng câu so sánh
Tính từ/trạng từ dài và ngắn
Trong các dạng so sánh ta còn có khái niệm tính từ/trạng từ dài và ngắn. Tùy thuộc vào loại tính
từ/trạng từ mà ta có sự biến đổi cho phù hợp với các thể so sánh
- Tính từ ngắn (short adjectives) gồm:
+ Tính từ một vần (syllable). Ví dụ: long , short, big, hot, fat
+ Tính từ hai vần nhưng tận cùng bằng phụ âm + Y. Ví dụ: happy, lazy, busy,
- Tính từ dài (long adjectives) gồm
+ Những tính từ hai vần còn lại. Ví dụ: bored, careless,…
+ Các tính từ từ ba vần trở lên. Ví dụ: beautiful, complicated,…
- Trạng từ ngắn: là những trạng từ một vần. Ví dụ: hard, late, soon,…
Lưu ý: Từ early tuy có hai vần nhưng vẫn xếp vào loại trạng từ ngắn.
- Trạng từ dài: là những trạng từ hai vần trở lên, ngoại trừ early và badly
Ví dụ: carefully, quiet, …
