Adverbs And Comparatives
Adverbs have comparatives and superlatives too. They are formed in the same way as those for adjectives except that
-- adverbs with two or more syllables and ending in y always use more/the most instead of --er/--est.
Informal uses of comparatives when comparing something or someone to yourself use me.
He is taller than me.
Formal uses of comparatives use I.
He is taller than I.
