2 Paris is most beautiful than London.
3 Russia is the colder than Spain.
4 I eat less of you.
5 My schoolbag is heaviest than yours.
6 Is your dress most expensive than mine?
Here are the corrected sentences:
1. This is a better program on TV!
*Explanation*: The word 'better' already implies a comparison, so you need the article 'a' before it.
2. Paris is more beautiful than London.
*Explanation*: For longer adjectives like 'beautiful,' we use 'more' to form the comparative degree.
3. Russia is colder than Spain.
*Explanation*: The comparative form of 'cold' is 'colder'.
4. I eat less than you.
*Explanation*: 'Less' requires 'than' to make a comparison. Also, you should eat less food than someone else, not less of someone else.
5. My schoolbag is heavier than yours.
*Explanation*: The comparative form of 'heavy' is 'heavier.' The 'y' changes to 'i' before adding '-er'.
6. Is your dress more expensive than mine?
*Explanation*: For longer adjectives like 'expensive,' we use 'more' to form the comparative degree.
