☁️ Comparing Places

Look at how we describe two different areas. We use 'more' to show a bigger amount of something.

  • Scotland → more sun
  • England → more clouds

How to use this: If you have a little of something, you just name it. If you have a lot, add 'more' before the word.


🌡️ The 'Changing' Words

Notice these two patterns for things that are moving or shifting:

  1. Getting + [Adjective]

    • Getting colder (It is not cold yet, but it is moving in that direction).
  2. Between [A] and [B]

    • Between 11°C and 19°C (The number is in the middle of these two points).

Quick Tip: Use "getting" when the weather is transforming right now!
