→ Bạn có thể thấy trong đoạn hội thoại trên đã bao gồm 2 chủ điểm ngữ pháp So sánh hơn – Comparative và so sánh nhất – Superlative.

Trước khi chúng ta tiến vào việc bàn về hai chủ điểm ngữ pháp này, hãy tìm hiểu về tính từ ngắn và tính từ dài, cũng như trạng từ ngắn và trạng từ dài, các loại từ này sẽ được áp dụng trong các câu so sánh.

1.1. So sánh hơn (Comparative

Khi sử dụng So sánh hơn – Comparative, chúng ta đang thực hiện sự so sánh giữa hai hoặc nhiều sự vật, hiện tượng,… dựa trên một tiêu chí cụ thể, và một trong những sự vật hoặc hiện tượng này sẽ có đặc điểm HƠN hơn so với những sự vật hoặc hiện tượng còn lại.

Dạng 1 – với tính từ, trạng từ ngắn: S + V + “short” adj/adv + -er + than + O

Tính từ, trạng từ ngắn => thêm -er vào sau đuôi

E.g.:

  • My brother is taller than me. (Em trai tôi cao hơn tôi.)
  • He runs faster than me. (Anh ta chạy nhanh hơn tôi.)

Dạng 2 – với tính từ, trạng từ dài: S + V + more + “long” adj/adv + than + O

Tính từ, trạng từ dài=> thêm more vào trước

E.g.:

  • He sings more beautifully than her. (Anh ta hát hay hơn cô ta.)

Và bạn có thể thêm các trạng từ như far, much, a bit, a little, a lot, … để bổ nghĩa hay nhấn mạnh cho câu so sánh hơn.

1.2. So sánh nhất (superlative)

Khi sử dụng So sánh nhất – Superlative, chúng ta đang so sánh nhiều sự vật, hiện tượng,… dựa trên một tiêu chí cụ thể, và một trong những sự vật hoặc hiện tượng này sẽ có đặc điểm HƠN HẲN so với những sự vật hoặc hiện tượng còn lại.

1.3. Các trường hợp cần lưu ý

  • So sánh hơn được sử dụng giữa 2 chủ thể, trong khi so sánh nhất sử dụng khi có 3 chủ thể trở lên.
  • Khi sử dụng câu so sánh, bạn cần phải có hai chủ thể cùng loại (người, vật, sự việc,…).
  • So sánh ít hơn: “fewer” dùng cho danh từ đếm được, “less” dùng cho danh từ không đếm được.
