For example expensive (expensive) becomes more expensive (more expensive).

Most adjectives whit one syllable (short adjectives), we write the ending "-er" to form their comparative. - 4Examples of short adjectives that end in "-e", just add "-r"... that end in a vowel and a consonant, make a double consonant and add "-er"... that end in "-y", change the "y" to "i" and add the ending "-er"...Small / Smaller wide / Wider thin / Thinner heavy / Heavier
