@michelle_DrNiah can you help me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Darry&Gator could you help me?

@Darry&Gator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm here! I'm here! Okay, I'm reading the directions. :3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so do you know what comparatives are?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, basically it is saying things like "He is taller than her" or "She is more sympathetic than him".

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So what I want you to do is use the comparatives with adjectives to explain the four people, but to do ti in English. Once you have done it in English, you can try to translate it yourself and then post it here and I will correct the translation if need.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. i know what that is.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How i would do the comparisons on the people. It gives me nothing to use to compare them.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That you have to figure out. :} But let me start you out: I know that from left to right they are Jorge, Lisa, Irene, and Alicia. "Alicia is taller than Irene." - "Alicia es mas alta que Irene."

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Like this: Jorge is taller than Alicia Alicia is taller than Irene Lisa is smaller than Alicia Irene is smaller than Jorge

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. Ans shorter* not smaller. And try using two different adjectives for two of those. You might not know who those people are but make something up like: "Jorge is more serious than the other girls." "Jorge es mas serio que los otras chicas." I did one, do the last one. :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alicia is older than the rest?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes: "Alicia es la mas mayor de todos." So this is your final paragraph "Jorge is mas serio que los otras chicas. Alicia es la mas mayor de todos. Lisa es mas baja que Alicia. Irene es mas baja que Jorge."

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A pleasure.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How would you say Costa Rica is located in Central America in spanish?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Costa Rica se encuentra en Centroamérica.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok. Thank you,again.
