COMPARISON

Penjelasan Degrees of Comparison - Degrees of Comparison atau yang sering di sebut comparison degrees merupakan salah satu materi grammar yang banyak diajarkan di tingkatan sekolah, baik dari SD sampai SMA. Pelajran Degrees of Comparison pertama kali dikenalkan ketika kita SD kelas 6, dan merupakan materi pelajaran bahasa Inggris yang sulit dimengerti oleh anak SD.

Sebagaimana kita ketahui bahwa terdapat tiga tingkatan dalam Degrees of Comparison, pertama yaitu positive/ negative comparison, kedua comparative dan yang terakhir adalah superlative. Tetapi sebelum kita melangkah ke sub-bagian tersebut, alangkah baiknya jika paham terlebih dahulu pembentukan -er/est yang mutlak dibutuhkan ketika kita menggunakan comparative dan superlative.

Pembentukan Adjectives Untuk Comparative dan Superlative Degree.

Terdapat dua jenis pembentukan adjectives untuk comparative dan superlative degree, yaitu untuk one-sylable adjectives (adjectives dengan satu ucapan) dan more than one-syllable adjective (adjective dengan lebih dari satu pengucapan).

1. One-syllable adjectives

Banyak orang berpikir pembentukan one-syllable adjectives untuk comparative dan superlative degree sesimple dengan manambahkan er/est pada akhiran adjectives saja, tetapi ada beberapa hal yang harus diperhatikan seperti hal berikut di bawah ini.
AdjectivesComparativeSuperlative
OldOlderOldest
TallTallerTallest
CheapCheaperCheapest



LateLaterLatest
NiceNicerNicest



AngryAngrierAngriest
FunkyFunkierFunkiest
LuckyLuckierLuckiest



FatFatterFattest
BigBiggerBiggest
ThinThinnerThinnest



  • Kebanyakan adjectives hanya ditambahkan -er/-est dalam membentuk adjectives untuk comparative dan superlative degree. Misalkan:
    NoComperativeSupelative
    01Old + -er = OlderOld + -est = Oldest
    02Tall + -er = TallerTall + -est = Tallest
    03Cheap + -er = CheaperCheap + -est = Cheapest

  • Untuk adjectives yang berakhiran huruf hidup (vowel) pembentukan adjectives untuk comperative dan superlative degree hanya ditambahkan -r/st. Misalnya:
  • NoComperativeSupelative
    01Late + -r = LaterLate + -st = Latest
    02Nice + -r = NicerNice + -st = Nicest



  • Untuk adjectives yang berkahiran huruf 'Y', pembentukan adjectives untuk comperative dan superlative degree yaitu dengan cara merubah huru 'Y' tersebut menjadi huruf 'I' kemudian ditambahkan -er/-est. Misalnya:
  • NoComperativeSupelative
    01Angry = angri + er = AngrierAngry = angri + est = Angriest
    02Funky = funki + er = FunkierFunky = funki + est = Funkiest
    03Lucky = lucki + er = LuckierLucky = lucki + est = Luckiest
  • Untuk adjectives yang berakhiran huruf mati (consonant) yang sebelumnya didahului oleh satu huruf hidup (vowel), misalkan fat, big, thin, pembentukan adjectives untuk comperative dan superlative yaitu dengan mengulang huruf akhir adjectives tersebut dan ditambahkan -er/-est. Misalnya:
  • NoComperativeSupelative
    01Fat = fatt + -er = FatterFat = fatt + -est = Fattest
    02Big = bigg + -er = BiggerBig = bigg + -est = Biggest
    03Thin = thinn + -er = ThinnerThin = thinn + -est = Thinnest
Irrigular Comparison

Selain terdapat pengecualian dalam pembentukan one-syllable adjectives untuk comparative dan superlative seperti di atas, anda juga harus memperhatikan apa itu irrigular comparison. Irrigular comparison adalah pembentukan adjectives untuk comperative dan superlative yang tidak mengikuti ketentuan-ketentuan di atas. Misalnya:

AdjectivesComperativeSuupelative
Good/wellBetterBest
BadWorseWorst
FarFurther/fartherFuthest/farthest
LittleLessLeast
OldOlder/elderOldest/eldest
               
2. More than one-syllable adjectives

Adjective dengan lebih dari satu pengucapan adalah kata adjective yang memerlukan dua pengucapan atau lebih untuk mengucapkannya, misalkan kata 'beautiful' memerlukan tiga pengucapan byu-ti-ful, dsb.

Pembentukan comperative dan superlative untuk adjective dengan lebih dari satu pengucapan relatif mudah, yaitu dengan menambahkan kata more/ most di depan kata adjective tersebut. Misalkan:

AdjectivesComperativeSupelative
BeautifulMore beautifulMost beautiful
HandsomeMore handsomeMost handsome
UglyMore uglyMost ugly
           


Setalah memahami pembentukan comperative dan superlative untuk one-syllable dan more than one-syllable adjective di atas, seperti yang penulis janjikan, mari kita simak penjelasan dari tiga jenis Degrees of Comparison.

1. Equality comparison (Perbandingan setara)

Pada equality comparison ini, menggambarkan perbadinginan yang setera antara pembading dan yang dibandingakan. Terdapat dua jenis equality comparison yaitu Postive comparison dan Negative Comparison.

Positive Comparison

Rumus:
Subject + To be + As + Adjectives + Object

Contohnya:
- My hands were as cold as ice. (Tangan-tangan ku sedingin es)
- She is as beautiful as her mother.(Dia (pr) secantik ibunya)

Negative Comparison

Rumus:
Subject + To be + Not + As/so + Adjectives + Object

Contohnya:
- She is not as/so beautiful as her mother. (Dia (pr) tidak secantik ibunya.)
- Andi is not as/ so tall as Tomy. (Andi tidak setinggi Tomy.)

2. Comparative

Comparative adalah struktur kebahasaan dalam bahasa Inggris yang membandingkan satu orang/benda (tunggal) dengan satu orang/benda lainnya (tunggal). Biasanya dicirikan dengan adanya kata More/-er (lebih) dan Than (dari pada). Untuk mengetahui bagaimana membentuk adjectives yang mendapat imbuhan more/-er, lihat penjelasan di atas.

Rumus:
Subject + To be + More/-er + Adejctives + Than + Object

Contohnya:
- She is more beautiful than her mother. (Dia (pr) lebih cantik dari pada ibunya.)
- Andi is more handsome than Tomy. (Andi lebih tampan dari pada Tomy.)

Selain mengguankan rumus di atas, terdapat pula pola yang mencerminkan Comparative yaitu dengan pengguanaan The .... The ..., misalkan:
- The sooner the better. (Lebih cepat lebih baik.)
- The older I get, the happier I am. (Semakin tua, semakin bahagia saya.)
- The more dangerous it is, the more I like it. (Semaikin berbahaya, semakin saya suka.)

3. Superlative

Superlative adalah struktur kebahasaan dalam bahasa Inggris yang membandingkan satu orang/ benda (tunggal) dengan orang/ benda yang lain (jamak). Biasanya dicirikan dengan adanya kata Most/-est (paling) dan artikel the sebelum kata most/-est. Untuk mengetahui bagaimana membentuk adjectives yang mendapat imbuhan most/-est, lihat penjelasan di atas.

Rumus :
Subject + To be + The + Most/-est + Adjective

Contohnya:
- She is the most beautiful creature in the world. (Dia adalah mahluk paling cantik di dunia.)
- I am the smartest students in the class. (Saya siswa paling cerdas di kelas.)
