What happens to a word that ends with a consonant, vowel, consonant? For example - Big?
We take the last letter and put another. So big needs an extra g and becomes - bigger.
Which is correct? Beautifuler or more beautiful?
'More beautiful' is correct. This is because if a word is three or more syllables we add 'more' and 'most' instead of 'er' and 'est'.
Remember the phrase: 1,2, er, est. 3, more, most.
