D'Amico Shipping B1 Lesson 11

Class
Mistakes with comparisons p. 51, p. 135
Introduction to presentations - advertising campaigns p. 52

Notes
Much more + noun
Much + adjective

E.g. We've had much more rain this year.
It's been much wetter this year.

Make sure you differentiate the pronunciation of the comparative and superlative terms to avoid confusion - e.g. Less /e/ the least /i:/

Just as (adjective) as = exactly the same

Pronunciation (vowel sounds - check your dictionary)
Agency
Fruit
Shape

Corrections
According to me
This is a false friend, use in my view/in my opinion instead.

Homework
During your personal reading and listening in English this week, pay particular attention to comparative and superlative forms and how they are modified.
