Comparatives in questions Exercises in Estonian language

Understanding the use of comparatives in questions is a crucial aspect of mastering the Estonian language. Comparatives are used to compare two or more entities, highlighting differences or similarities in their attributes. In Estonian, forming questions with comparatives involves specific grammatical structures and vocabulary that may differ significantly from those in English. By practicing these exercises, you will become more adept at framing questions that accurately convey comparative relationships, enhancing your conversational skills and overall fluency. In Estonian, the comparative form of adjectives and adverbs often requires modifications to the base word, and this form must be correctly integrated into the sentence structure. When posing questions, it is essential to understand how to manipulate both the comparative form and the sentence syntax to ensure clarity and accuracy. Our exercises will guide you through various scenarios and question types, providing you with ample practice to develop your proficiency. By the end of these exercises, you will be equipped with the tools to confidently use comparatives in questions, whether you are asking about preferences, differences, or similarities.
