            [00:00.56]Adjectives describe and add information about the people or things we see every day.
[00:10.98]Sometimes, though, we want to know how two things compare to one another.
[00:18.50]Let's start with something light. In 1994, actors Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels made a comic film called ��Dumb and Dumber��. 
[00:31.70]Audiences saw the characters do increasingly ��dumb�� things for laughs.
[00:37.91]Here, the adjective form is dumb and the comparative form is dumber. 
[00:44.86]By adding �� er to the adjective, you show the difference between two things��that one action or person is dumber than another. 
[00:57.26]This works for adjectives that have one or two syllables such as nice or pretty.
