To provide the comparative form of adjectives we must keep in mind that the short ones will get the -er ending, whereas the long ones will come after "more".

  • Old - older
  • Small - smaller
  • Expensive - more expensive
  • Important - more important
  • Long - longer
  • Careful - more careful
  • Sweet - sweeter
  • Attractive - more attractive
  • Cheap - cheaper
  • Graceful - more graceful
  • Easy - easier
  • Difficult - more difficult
  • Big - bigger
  • Intelligent - more intelligent
  • Useful - more useful
  • Hard working - more hard working
  • Heavy - heavier
  • Hot - hotter
  • Interesting - more interesting
  • Good - Better

<h3>The comparative form of adjectives</h3>

The comparative form of adjectives is used, as the name suggests, when we compare different things or people. Some simple rules must be kept in mind when making comparisons:

  • Short adjectives receive the ending -er: smaller, faster, older.
  • If the short adjective ends in consonant + vowel + consonant, we must double the final consonant: hotter, bigger.
  • Two-syllable adjectives ending in -y can use both forms: heavier or more heavy.
  • Adjectives that have two or more syllables must come after "more": more intelligent, more attractive.
  • Adjectives "good" and "bad" have their own forms: better and worse, respectively.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude the answer provided above is correct.

Answer:

infinitive phrase - an infinitive with modifiers, a complement, or a subject, acting together as a single part of speech

gerund phrase - a gerund accompanied by modifiers or complements

infinitive - a form of a verb that generally appears with the word to and acts as a noun, adjective, or adverb

participle - a form of a verb that acts as an adjective

gerund - a form of a verb that acts as a noun

participial phrase - a participle that is modified by an adverb or adverb phrase or has a complement

Explanation:

An infinitive phrase starts with an infinitive - "to" and the simple form of a verb. It also includes objects and or modifiers.

A gerund phrase includes a gerund plus any complements or modifiers, and it functions as a noun.

The infinitive is the basic form of a verb, that is, a form with no inflections - no changes due to a relationship with a subject. It usually comes preceded by "to".

A participle is a word formed from a verb. The present participle is formed by adding -ing to the verb stem, while the past participle of regular verbs is formed by the addition of -d, -ed, or -ied.

A gerund is a noun created by adding -ing to a verb root.

A participial phrase is constituted of a participle and its complements or modifiers. It functions as an adjective.
