HOW ‘TRAPPE VAN VERGELYKING’ ARE TESTED?
he positive form of the adjective is usually given, and you have to give either the comparative or superlative form of it.
Once again try and think what it would have been in English.
Always try to find the adjective in the sentence, because this is the word that changes.
- If you compare two things or people, you use the comparative form (column B).
If you compare more than two things or people, you use the superlative form (column C).
Ek studeer baie vakke op skool. Engels is (maklik) makliker as Afrikaans, maar Wiskunde is die (moeilik) moeilikste. - If they give you an ‘as’ (meaning than), they want the comparative form. Die seun is (groot) groter as sy suster.
- a. If they give you ‘Hoe … hoe’, you must use the comparative form.
b. If they give you a ‘die’ before the adjective, you must use the superlative form.Die kinders het hard gewerk en hulle het goed gedoen.
Hoe harder die kinders gewerk het, hoe beter het hulle gedoen.
Die kinders wat die hardste werk, sal die beste doen. - They may even give you hoe …, hoe … en hoe …
(hoe … verb to end, hoe … adjective verb, en hoe … adjective verb)
Jy werk hard; daarom is jou resultate goed en jou ouers is gelukkig.
Hoe harder jy werk, hoe beter is jou resultate en hoe gelukkiger is jou ouers.
