What do you remember about relative pronouns and comparisons?
Slide 1 - Open vraag
Relative Pronouns
Who: Refers to a person (as the verb’s subject)
Whom: Refers to a person (as the verb’s object)
Which: Refers to an animal or thing
What: Refers to a nonliving thing
That: Refers to a person, animal, or thing
Slide 2 - Tekstslide
Relative Pronouns
Answer questions such as: Which one? How many? or What kind? Who, whom, what, which, and that are all relative pronouns.
You can use relative pronouns to make 2 separate sentences into 1 sentence. E.g:
A woman came to the door. She left flowers for you
--> The woman who came to the door left flowers for you.
Slide 3 - Tekstslide
Comparisons
• For adjectives that are just one syllable, add -er to the end (this explains the above example).
• For two-syllable adjectives not ending in -y and for all three-or-more-syllable adjectives, use the form “more + adjective.”
• For two-syllable adjectives ending in -y, change the -y to -i and add -er.
Slide 4 - Tekstslide
Comparisons
When comparing two things, you’re likely to use adjectives like smaller, bigger, taller, more interesting, and less expensive. Notice the -er ending, and the words more and less.
