COMPARING THINGS
OPEN THE PDF PRESENTATION
Ricorda:
Aggettivi che termina in -ING oppure -ED anche se sono brevi formano il comparativo e il superlativo con MORE e THE MOST.
Ad esempio: MORE BORING, THE MOST TUNED, THE MOST TIRED, MORE CARING.
Il superlativo inglese NON corrisponde al superlativo italiana ma al COMPARATIVO ASSOLUTO o SUPERLATIVO RELATIVO.
THE MOST IMPORTANT si traduce infatti come "il più importante", mentre "importantissimo" si dice VERY IMPORTANT.
