Comparatif et superlatif.
Message de marie11 posté le 25-10-2007 à 10:56:53
Bonjour.

Quelques rappels succincts.

La construction du comparatif anglais dépend de la longueur de l'adjectif.

Adjectif(ou adverbe) court ──► adjectif + er
short ──► shorter - long ──►longer

Attention à l'orthographe !

sad ──►sadder - happy ──► happier

Adjectif(ou adverbe) long ──► more + adjectif

expensive ──► more expensive
famous ──► more famous

Comparatifs irréguliers :

good ──► better
bad ──► worse

Double comparatif :
Deux comparatifs reliés par and pour exprimer un accroissement.

He's getting better and better ──► Il va de mieux en mieux.
It's more and more difficult ──► C'est de plus en plus difficile.

Allez, maintenant au travail -the sooner the better -

Niveau :
Correction : samedi 3 novembre 2007.

Traduisez les phrases suivantes :

1- Ces deux jumeaux se ressemblent comme deux gouttes d'eau, mais Chuck est de loin le plus sympathique des deux frères.

2- Quel temps pourri! Mes vacances ont été gâchées. Ce fut le pire été de ma vie.

3- As-tu fait les deux exercices de mathématique ?
- Le premier était plus facile que le second.
- C'est vrai, le premier était le plus facile des deux.

4- C'est Cathy qui travaille le mieux en classe. Elle a toujours les meilleures notes de la classe.

5- Il gagne trois fois plus d'argent que moi, mais j'ai moins de problèmes financiers que lui.

6- Elle continue à manger deux fois plus que moi et elle ne grossit pas.
C'est de plus en plus surprenant!

7- Plus un journaliste est objectif, plus on peut se fier aux articles qu'il écrit.

8- Dans les banlieues, la plupart des gens sont mieux logés qu'autrefois.

9- Plus je te regarde et moins je trouve que tu ressembles à ton père.

10- Pour quelques dollars de moins vous pouvez avoir un modèle similaire tout aussi efficace.

Hello !

1- This two twins resemble each other like two drops, but between the two bothers, Chuck is far more nice. (comme il n'y a que deux éléments, comparatif = superlatif, n'est-il pas ?)
2- What a foul wheather ! My holiday has been fouled up. It has been the worse summer of my life.
3- Have you done the two exercices of math ?
- The first one was easier than the second one.
- You're right, the first one was the easiest of the two exercices.
4- Cathy is the one who works best in the class. She has always got the best marks of the class.
5- He earns three times as much geld as I do, but I have got fewer financial problems than him.
6- She goes on eating twice as much as me and she doesn't get fat.
It's more and more stunning!
7- The more a journalist is objective, the more one can rely on the articles he writes.
8- In the suburbs, most people are better accomodated than in the past.
9- The more I'm looking at you, the less I think that you resemble your father.
10- With a few dollars off, you can get a similar model as efficient.

2- What lousy weather! My holidays have been ruined. It was the worst summer of my life.

5- He makes third times more money than I, but I have less financial difficulties than he.
6- She keeps eating twice as much as I do yet she doesn't put on weight. It's more and more surprising.
7- The fairer a journalist, the more reliable his articles.
8- In suburbs most people are better housed than erstwhile.
9- The more I look at you the more I think you look like your father.
10- For a few dollars less you could have a model as efficient.

Bonjour.

Voici quelques remarques préliminaires.

I- comparaison de deux éléments
superlatif français = comparatif anglais.

On emploie le comparatif et non le superlatif.

II - Exclamation !

Pas d'article indéfini (a) avec un indénombrable ou un dénombrable pluriel.

III - Superlatif suivi d'une préposition

IN avec un lieu ou un groupe de personnes
OF dans tous les autres cas.

IV - Trois fois plus ...que

-Three times AS + adjectif + AS ...
ou
-Three times + comparatif + than...

Exception
Deux fois plus ...que ──► Twice AS + adjectif + AS
V - Comparaison et pronom

Dans une comparaison, après le second as on peut trouver :
- un pronom complément
- un pronom sujet + verbe
- un pronom sujet (langue très soignée)

VI - Progressions parallèles
Structure :

THE + comparatif + sujet + verbe , THE + comparatif + sujet + verbe
The bigger the town is , the more dangerous it is.

Voici ma proposition.

1- Those twin boys are as like as two peas (in the pod), but Chuck is by far the nicer.
2- What rainy weather ! My holyday has been spoiled. It has been the worst summer of my life.
3- Have you done the two maths exercises ?
- The first one was easier than the other one.
- That's right, the first one was the easier.
4- It's Cathy who works best in her class, she gets the best marks in the form.
5- He earns three times as much as me, but I've fewer financial problems than he has.
6- She keeps on eating twice as much as I do, and she doesn't put on weight. It's more and more amazing !
7- The more unbiased a journalist is, the more reliable the articles he writes are.
8- In those suburbs most people are better housed than they used to be.
9- The more I look at you, the less I find you look like your father.
10- For a few dollars less, you can have this similar model which is just as efficient.

Je vous remercie de votre participation.
Je répondrai très volontiers à toute question relative à ce sujet.

ne pourrait-on pas dire aussi "I find out you look like your father?

Réponse: Comparatif et superlatif. de marie11, postée le 24-04-2008 à 08:32:13
Bonjour trouville.

Je pense que vous devez parler de la phrase :

The more I look at you, the less I find you look like your father.

In this sentence the verb " to find " means to think or feel a particular way about someone or something.

- I don't find him an easy person to get on with.
- She doesn't find it easy to talk about her problems.

As for the phrasal verb " to find out" it means : to get information about something because you want to know more about it , or to learn a fact or piece of information for the first time.

-How did you find out about the party ?
-I'll just go and find out what's going on outside.
