Remember that adjectives MODIFY or DESCRIBES the NOUN. Here you can practice agreat list of common and necessary.

Using the COPULATIVE VERBS with adjectives

In English we can use the COPULATIVE VERBS before the adjectives. Somecopulative verbs are : TO BE, LOOK, SEEM, FEEL, BECOME etc

** Estos verbos son faciles de usar con adjetives. Nunca se han preguntado por que Tengofrio Tengo hambre no es I have cold o I have hungry Es simple, es porque no sonverbos copulativos. El verbo copulativo mas famoso es el VERBO TO BE.

VEAMOS LA TABLA:

Como vemos podemos utilizar directamente el adjetivo despues de esta clase de verbos.Para empesar recomiendo aprenderce los mas importantes. Look verse (no confundir con

look at que es ver) feel sentirse, verbo to be ser o estar.Subject Copulative Verb Adjective

She Is (to be) Thirsty

He Feels (to feel) Sick

They Look (to look tired

Nota: Los verbos copulativos tambin pueden ser seguidos por sustantivos pero no esrelevante en esta leccin

ADJECTIVES: COMPARATIVES AND SUPERLATIVES7 marzo, 2010 ceiplapiedad Dejar un comentario Go to comments

Los adjetivos son aqullas palabras que se unen a un nombre paraampliar, complementar y cuantificar su significado.

Calificativos:good , bueno;thin , delgado;dry , seco;bad , malo;short , corto.

GENERALIDADES

- Los adjetivos en ingls son invariables en gnero y nmero.

yellow = amarillo, amarilla, amarillos, amarillas

- Normalmente se colocan delante del sustantivo:

I have a big book / Tengo un libro grande

- Verbo To be + (am/is/are/was, etc.) + adjetivo

These pictures are very beautiful / Esas imgenes son muy bonitas

- To be + adjetivo tiene en ocasiones la equivalencia a Tener

Im hungry / Tengo hambre

-COMPARATIVOS Y SUPERLATIVOS

Al igual que en espaol, en ingls cuando queremos comparar dos cosas utilizamos losadjetivos y sus distintos grados: positivo, comparativo y superlativo.

- El grado positivo refiere la forma ms simple:

A sunny day / Un da soleado

- El grado comparativo refiere una cualidad mayor de una cosa respecto de otra.

A better day / Un da mejor

CLASES DE COMPARACIN

-COMPARATIVO DE IGUALDAD

Se forma con el adjetivo intercalado entre la construccin asas (tancomo) parafrases afirmativas e interrogativasy not asas o not soas para las frases negativas.

Im as young as you / soy tan joven como t am I as young as you? / soy tan joven como t? Im not so young as you / no soy tan joven como t

Podemos emplear tras el segundo as el pronombre en caso nominativo o acusativo (He,his; She, her)

He is as young as she; He is as young as her / l es tan joven como ella

Si se trata de una comparacin entre dos verbos, podemos usar la expresin as much as(tanto como) tambin en forma negativa

She does not work as much as she should / Ella no trabaja tanto como debera

Cuando la comparacin se hace entre dos sustantivos se utiliza as much as para elsingular y as many as para el plural.

I have as much work as my boss / Tengo tanto trabajo como mi jefe I have as many pencils as you / Tengo tantos lpices como t

Si estamos comparando dos sustantivos contables (libros, coches, casas) utilizaremos asmany as , pero si estamos comparando dos sustantivos incontables (madera, tiempo,

msica) usaremos la construccin as muchas .

We have as many books as them / Tenemos tantos libros como ellos We have as much space as them / Tenemos tanto espacio como ellos


7/22

- COMPARATIVO DE INFERIORIDAD

Se forma con el adjetivo intercalado entre la construccin lessthan (menosque),aunque es ms usual encontrar la comparacin de igualdad en forma negativa (que tiene elmismo significado).

Normalmente se emplea less para incontables y fewer para contables

- COMPARATIVO DE SUPERIORIDAD

Se forma de dos modos:

Aadiendo al adjetivo el sufijo-er para el comparativo de superioridad y-est para elsuperlativo.

= + er + est

big (grande ) bigger (ms grande ) biggest (el ms grande )
