• If the adjectives finishes with -Y we will change it into an -I and -ER:  PRETTY  -   PRETTIER.
• If the adjective has the structure Consonant -Vowel -Consonant, we have to double the last consonant: BIG  -  BIGGER.
• If the adjective has more than two syllables we add MORE: BEAUTIFUL - MORE BEAUTIFUL.
