Comparatives & Superlatives Dictation: More and Less with Longer Adjectives

Catch more or less before the adjective. That little word tells you which way the comparison goes, so it deserves a clear second listen if you are unsure. The adjective itself stays the same in these phrases. Sometimes the speaker names the other thing with than; sometimes the situation makes it clear. You do not need to add an extra comparison. Keep all the words you hear, including any time or weather detail that explains why something feels different.
