●COMPARATIVE VS SUPERLATIVE:

¤Comparative adjectives

Comparative adjectives are used to compare differences between the two objects they modify (larger, smaller, faster, higher). They are used in sentences where two nouns are compared, in this pattern:

¤Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than + noun (object).

¤For Examples:

1. Ali is taller than Ibrahim.
2. Mark is smarter than Jackson. He solved all mathematics exercises in short time.
3. Angela is happier than Jasmine because she is so sad.
4. Fredric is weaker than Patrick, and that's why he lost to him.

¤Superlative adjectives

Superlative adjectives are used to describe an object which is at the upper or lower limit of a quality (the tallest, the smallest, the fastest, the highest). They are used in sentences where a subject is compared to a group of objects.

¤Noun (subject) + verb + the + superlative adjective + noun (object).

¤For Examples:
1. The 2nd World War is the deadliest war we have ever seen.
2. The Pacific Ocean is the largest and deepest of the world ocean basins.
3. The Katy Freeway is the widest in the world.
4. Joaquin Phoenix Wins The Best Actor Oscar for "Joker" 2020.

¤And these forms go with one syllable words to use in comparative forms and superlative ones, but for the two or three syllables words like the power, beautiful, boring, exciting, interesting, and expensive, for example:

1. Harry is the most powerful figure in his class.
Harry is more powerful than Alex and Jack.
But you can't say Harry is powerer than ....
Or Harry is the powerest figure of all.
2. Susan is the most beautiful woman in her state.
Susan is more beautiful than jennifer.
While beautiful is a word and the suffix -est can be added to the end of various adjectives to make them superlative, 'beautifulest' is not a word, but you can't say Susan is beautifuler than bla bla blah.

●And that's all of it, I hope that I have given you the most important points to understand them very well

🔹I have watched every match my team has played


*2. All.*

As is a preposition or a conjunction.

As as a preposition

We use as with a noun to refer to the role or purpose of a person or thing:

I worked as a waiter when I was a student. Most of us did.

Not: I worked like a waiter …

[The Daily Telegraph is a British newspaper]

The Daily Telegraph appointed Trevor Grove as its Sunday editor.

Internet shopping is seen as a cheaper alternative to shopping on the high street.

A sarong is essential holiday gear. It can be used as a beach towel, wrap, dress or scarf and will take up no space in your bag.

Warning:

We don’t use as + noun to mean ‘similar to’. We use like + noun:

It’s almost like a real beach, but it’s actually artificial.

Not: It’s almost as a real beach …

I would like to have a white cat like the one in my dream.

Not: … as the one in my dream

See also:

Like

As as a conjunction

The conjunction as has several different meanings. We use as when one event happens while another is in progress (‘during the time that’). In this case the verb after is often in the continuous form:

They arrived as we were leaving. (time conjunction meaning ‘while’ or ‘when’)

We use as to connect a result with a cause:

I went to bed at 9 pm as I had a plane to catch at 6 am. (reason and result meaning ‘because’)

We also use as to mean ‘in the way that’:

As the forecast predicted, the weather was dreadful for the whole of the weekend.

She arrived early, as I expected.

The same as

We use as with the same to talk about identical things:

Your jacket is the same colour as mine.

See also:

Same, similar, identical

As: simultaneous changes

We use as to introduce two events happening at the same time. After as with this meaning, we usually use a simple (rather than continuous) form of the verb:

As the show increases in popularity, more and more tickets are sold daily.

*The mood* in English grammar does not refer to the emotion of the action or anything like that. Instead, the *mood* of the verbs refers to whether or not something is a fact. The intention of the speaker/writer is understood by the mood of the verbs.

In English, there are mainly *three kinds* of mood:

*Indicative mood*
*Imperative mood*
*Subjunctive mood*


Each of the types has a particular function.

*Indicative Mood*

*Indicative mood* tells the reader/listener something factual. This mood is generally used in making a statement or asking for a *statement* by a *question.* The statement can be factual or *presumed to be factual.*

*Example:*

Michel was the greatest musician.
Where are you going?
I am going to Texas.

*Imperative Mood*

*Imperative mood* makes a verb into a command or request. It always uses *the* *second person* as the subject of the sentence and most of the time the subject remains hidden.

*Example:*

Bring the bottle over here.
Make me a cup of tea, please.
Let her take her own decisions. (Here, *‘let’* is the verb of this sentence, not *‘take’.)*

*Subjunctive Mood*

*Subjunctive mood* indicates the possibility, wishes, or hypothetical statements. It is almost the opposite of the *indicative mood.* This mood usually mixes the tense of the verbs and does not follow the common usage of the tense.

*Subjunctive* has some different structures from the other structures of sentences.

*Conditionals* generally use the subjunctive mood.

*Example:*

If you change this dress, I will take you with me.
If I were in your shoes, I would not do it.
If they were in America, they could not escape from it.
If they had taken the vaccine, they would not have been affected.

*Some certain verbs +* the conjunction *that* requires the next clause to use the subjunctive mood and the clause uses the base form of the verb in it.

*The verbs are:*

*Advise – demand – prefer – require – ask – insist Propose – stipulate – command – recommend Suggest – decree – order – request – urge – move*

*Structure:*

*Subject + the verbs of the above box* (any tense) *+ THAT + subject + base verb + . . . . .*

Example:

He insisted that I *stay* at home.
The office requires that we *complete* our work timely.
She commanded that he *stop* drinking alcohol.
I recommend that you *wake* up early.

*Note:* There are some clauses also which require the verb of the next clause to be in base form.

The clauses are:

*It is/was + past participle form of the verb of the above box + THAT*

*It is/was urgent + THAT*

*It is/was necessary + THAT*

*It is/was important + THAT*

Example:

It is important that you *invite* him to the party.
It was necessary that I *make* a fence.
It was recommended that you *meet* the principal.

♣ *a lot of, lots of*


🔹These phrases are mainly used in informal English – lots of sounds a bit more informal than a lot of. Both forms are used in singular and in plural sentences.

🔹It is not the phrase a lot of or lots of which determines singular or plural, but the noun of the sentence (here: water and computers).

♦Informal English
▪Singular

🔸- A lot of water is wasted.

🔸- Lots of water is wasted.

▪Plural

🔸- A lot of computers are needed at schools.

🔸- Lots of computers are needed at schools.2. Formal English

♦In formal English
we use plenty of or much and many instead of a lot of/lots of.

▪Singular

🔸Plenty of water is wasted.

🔸Much water is wasted.

▪Plural

🔸Plenty of computers are needed at schools.

🔸Many computers are needed at schools.

📔over your head

📋Meaning

🗣Jerry told a really funny joke about the economics of the cheese industry, and it went right over Tom's head. He didn't even smile.
