Choose the best words to help the overly optimistic real estate agent sell this questionable house.
This cozy closet—I mean, bedroom—is much _________________________ than your current room, but it is so much _________________________ to clean! Plus, because the windows don't open, it is definitely _________________________ to heat in the winter.

...bedroom—is much smaller than your current room... ...but it is so much easier to clean! ...it is definitely cheaper to heat in the winter.

We use the comparative form (adding -er) when comparing two things, often followed by "than."

One-syllable adjectives take "-er" (smaller, cheaper).

Two-syllable adjectives ending in "y" drop the "y" and add "-ier" (easier). Notice how words like "much" can be used before a comparative adjective to make it stronger!
