For today’s lesson, we will explore ways to make a comparison between people.<\/p>\n
Let’s start off with a comparative sentence:<\/p>\n
He is older than you : \u0935\u0939\u00a0\u0906\u092a\u00a0\u0938\u0947\u00a0\u092c\u095c\u093e\u00a0\u0939\u0948<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n \u0935\u0939\u00a0= <\/strong>He. \u0906\u092a\u00a0= <\/strong>you. \u0938\u0947\u00a0= <\/strong>than. \u092c\u095c\u093e\u00a0= <\/strong>tall. \u0939\u0948<\/strong>\u00a0= is.<\/p>\n The \u0938\u0947<\/strong> postposition is what makes this sentence a comparative sentence.<\/p>\n You can also use the adverb \u0905\u0927\u093f\u0915<\/strong>, which means “more”, to show a comparison.<\/p>\n That book is better (more good)\u00a0than this one : \u0935\u0939 \u092a\u0941\u0938\u094d\u0924\u0915\u00a0\u0907\u0938\u00a0\u092a\u0941\u0938\u094d\u0924\u0915 \u0938\u0947 \u0905\u0927\u093f\u0915 \u0905\u091a\u094d\u091b\u0940\u00a0\u0939\u0948<\/strong><\/p>\n \u0935\u0939<\/strong> = that. \u092a\u0941\u0938\u094d\u0924\u0915<\/strong>\u00a0= book. \u0907\u0938<\/strong>\u00a0= this. \u092a\u0941\u0938\u094d\u0924\u0915<\/strong> = book. \u0938\u0947<\/strong> = than. \u0905\u0927\u093f\u0915<\/strong> = more. \u0905\u091a\u094d\u091b\u0940<\/strong>\u00a0= good. \u0939\u0948<\/strong> = is.<\/p>\n There’s also the option of using \u0915\u0947\u00a0\u092e\u0941\u0915\u093e\u092c\u0932\u0947\u00a0\u092e\u0947\u0902<\/strong> as a way to compare things.<\/p>\n \u0915\u0947\u00a0\u092e\u0941\u0915\u093e\u092c\u0932\u0947\u00a0\u092e\u0947\u0902<\/strong>\u00a0literally means “in comparison with”<\/p>\n This girl is wiser than that girl or This girl is wiser in comparison with that girl :<\/p>\n \u0909\u0938\u00a0\u0932\u0921\u093c\u0915\u0940 <\/span><\/span>\u0915\u0947\u00a0\u092e\u0941\u0915\u093e\u092c\u0932\u0947\u00a0\u092e\u0947\u0902 \u092f\u0939 \u0932\u0921\u093c\u0915\u0940 <\/span><\/span>\u092c\u0941\u0926\u094d\u0927\u093f\u092e\u093e\u0928\u00a0\u0939\u0948<\/strong><\/p>\n \u0909\u0938\u00a0<\/strong>= that. \u0932\u0921\u093c\u0915\u0940 = <\/strong>girl. <\/span><\/span>\u0915\u0947\u00a0\u092e\u0941\u0915\u093e\u092c\u0932\u0947\u00a0\u092e\u0947\u0902 = <\/strong>in comparison with. \u092f\u0939 = <\/strong>this. \u0932\u0921\u093c\u0915\u0940 = <\/strong>girl. <\/span><\/span>\u092c\u0941\u0926\u094d\u0927\u093f\u092e\u093e\u0928\u00a0<\/strong>= wise. \u0939\u0948 <\/strong>= is.<\/p>\n Now let’s look at a sentence that expresses the superlative:<\/p>\n Sunil is the wisest of all in his class : \u0938\u0941\u0928\u0940\u0932 \u0915\u0915\u094d\u0937\u093e\u00a0\u092e\u0947\u0902\u00a0\u0938\u092c \u0938\u0947 \u0905\u0927\u093f\u0915 \u092c\u0941\u0926\u094d\u0927\u093f\u092e\u093e\u0928 \u0939\u0948<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u0938\u0941\u0928\u0940\u0932<\/strong> = Sunil. \u0915\u0915\u094d\u0937\u093e<\/strong>\u00a0= class. \u092e\u0947\u0902<\/strong>\u00a0= in. \u0938\u092c \u0938\u0947 \u0905\u0927\u093f\u0915<\/strong> = most. \u092c\u0941\u0926\u094d\u0927\u093f\u092e\u093e\u0928<\/strong> = wise. \u0939\u0948<\/strong> = is.<\/p>\n So you see here that \u0938\u092c \u0938\u0947 \u0905\u0927\u093f\u0915 <\/strong>acts as the superlative.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For today’s lesson, we will explore ways to make a comparison between people.
