Lesson 27: comparing 보다


To compare things in korean you need to
Rule : 
      Add 보다 to the thing in the sentence that is being compared to

Ex:
 나는 아버지보다 더 잘 생겼어요
Jeo neun abeojipoda jal seangyeosseoyou
I am more handsome than my father.

Ex:
  저는 남동생 보다 키가 더 커요
 Jeo neun namdongsaeng poda kkiga deo kkeoyou
 I'm taller than my little brother

Ex:
 저는 어제 보다 밥을 더 먹었어요
 Jeo neun eonjae poda pabeul deo meogeosseoyou
 I ate more than yesterday
Ps: in most cases 더 is used in conjunction with 보다.

*More examples:

나는 내일 어제 보다 사람 2명 더 만날거야
Na neun naeil eojae poda saram do myeon deo mannalkeoya
I will meet two more people tomorrow than yesterday.
☆ A common word that is used with 보다 is 평소:usual.
Ex:
나는 평소 보다 더 열심히 공부하고 있어요.
Na neun ppyeongso poda deo yeolshimhi kongbohagou isseoyou.
I'm studying harder than usual.

나는 평소 보다 더 행복해요.
Na neun ppyeongso poda deo haengpokhaeyou.
I'm happy more than usual.
