🚀 [Day 26] 비교급 & 최상급 완전정리 – more / most / less / as ~ as

복습퀴즈

✅ Correct answer: ① a bit

---

🔍 Explanation (English)

• The sentence compares two things (“this laptop” and “that one”) → comparative form.
• The adjective “more expensive” is a comparative, so we can use an adverb of degree like a bit, much, far, or slightly to show how much more.

👉 This laptop is a bit more expensive than that one.
= This laptop costs a little more than the other one.

---

Option analysis:
1️⃣ ✅ a bit — correct; means “조금 더” and fits with “more expensive.”
2️⃣ as ❌ — used in as...as structures, not with comparatives.
3️⃣ the ❌ — used for superlatives (the most expensive), not here.
4️⃣ most ❌ — superlative form, doesn’t fit a comparison between two items.

🇰🇷 한국어 해설

정답은 ① a bit 입니다.

• 비교급(more expensive) 앞에는 정도를 나타내는 부사(a bit, much, far, slightly 등)를 넣을 수 있습니다.
• a bit 은 “조금”이라는 뜻으로, “조금 더 비싸다”라는 의미가 됩니다.

보기 설명:
1️⃣ ✅ a bit → “조금” ✔
2️⃣ as → as...as 구문에 사용, 비교급과 함께는 사용 불가 ❌
3️⃣ the → 최상급과 함께 사용 (the most expensive) ❌
4️⃣ most → 최상급이므로 둘을 비교할 때는 사용 불가 ❌

---

👉 올바른 문장:
This laptop is a bit more expensive than that one.
→ 이 노트북은 저것보다 조금 더 비싸요.

전치사 (preposition)	명사(구)와 연결	명사 / 동명사	Despite the rain, we went out.

💡 핵심 차이:

접속사 → “뒤에 문장(절)”
전치사 → “뒤에 명사(구)”
