In German, you won’t ever hear phrases like more beautiful or more expensive when comparing! You always use the ‑er ending.
schön beautiful |
schöner more beautiful |
---|
Often, if an adjective has only one syllable, it gets an umlaut added to it. And if the adjective ends in ‑er, ‑el, or ‑en, drop the e before you add ‑er!
lang long |
länger longer |
---|---|
teuer expensive |
teurer more expensive |
