What is a comparative adjective?

A comparative adjective is a type of adjective used to compare two or more things, showing a higher or lower degree of a quality. It is used to indicate that one thing has more or less of a certain characteristic than another. Comparative adjectives are formed by adding "-er" to the end of the adjective or by using the word "more" before the adjective.
