Degree Of Comparison

Pengertian
Ada 3 tingkat perbandingan kata sifat yaitu :
1. Tingkat biasa (positive degree)
2. Tingkat lebih (comparative degree)
3. Tingkat paling/ter (superlative degree)

Penggunaannya :
I. Tingkat Biasa (positive degree)
Dipakai apabila kita membandingkan dua buah benda atau kelompok yang sama sifatnya atau keadaannya.
Bentuk comparison :

As + Objective + As

(sama/se…)
Misalnya :
As big as = sama besar, sebesar
As handsome as = sama cakep, secakep
As expensive as = sama mahal, semahal

My brother is as big as my uncle
Her boyfriend is as handsome as Daniel Radcliefe
That notebook is as expensive as my mother’s cell phone


Not so + Adjective = As/not as + Adjective + As
(tidak sama/tidak se…)

Ega is not so good as Rendrew. (Ega tidak sebaik Rendrew)
Ega is not as good as Rendrew.
Ega is not so cute as Rendrew. (Ega tidak seimut Rendrew)
Ega is not as good as Rendrew.

II. Tingkat lebih (comparative degree)
Dipakai apabila kita membandingkan dua buah benda atau kelompok yang berbeda sifatnya atau keadaaannya.
Bentuk comparative :
Adjective yang terdiri dari satu hingga dua suku kata :

Adjective + er than
(lebih …dari pada)

Adjective yang terdiri dari tiga suku kata atau lebih :

More + Adjective + than

Misalnya :
Cleverer than = lebih pintar daripada
Widder than = lebih luas daipada
Higher than = lebih tinggi daripada
More confusing than = lebih membingungkan daripada
More dangerous than = lebih berbahaya daripada
More important than = lebih penting daripada

Example :

e. Lion is more dangerous than a dog
f. Love is more important than anymore


III. Tingkat paling/ter (superlative degree)

Bentuk superlative :
Adjective yang terdiri dari satu atau dua suku kata :

(paling/ter…)

The most + Adjective

a. The cleverest = terpandai/paling pandai
b. The easiest = termudah/paling mudah
c. The cutest = paling imut
d. The most difficult = tersulit/paling sulit

Susunan bentuk :
The + comparative + the + comparative
(makin…makin…)
