Comparative Form

It's easy to compare things when speaking Thai. For this the word ¡ÇèÒ  is used. Add it like a suffix to the end of any adjective to say "...than" or "-er." For example:

bigger than ...; larger than ...ãË­è¡ÇèÒyaiL gwaaL
longer than...ÂÒÇ¡ÇèÒyaaoM gwaaL
shorter than... (in length)ÊÑ鹡ÇèÒsanF gwaaL
shorter than... (in height)àµÕé¡ÇèÒdtiiaF gwaaL
taller than...; higherÊÙ§¡ÇèÒsuungR gwaaL
smarter than...©ÅÒ´¡ÇèÒchaL laatL gwaaL
[is] cheaper than...¶Ù¡¡ÇèÒthuukL gwaaL
cleaner than...ÊÐÍÒ´¡ÇèÒsaL aatL gwaaL
better than...; better not; would rather...; had better...´Õ¡ÇèÒdeeM gwaaL
prettier than...ÊÇ¡ÇèÒsuayR gwaaL
below; under; lower thanµèÓ¡ÇèÒdtahmL gwaaL
etc.

See the entry for ¡ÇèÒ  for more examples.
