forms similar to adjectives. For example:
- She runs more quickly than me.

in -ly, add more in front of the adverb. For
example:
- Jake works slowly >> Jake works more
slowly than Mark, but he doesn't make many
mistakes.
- He understands easily. >> He understands
more easily than before.
he sed as a preposition, it means something
is similar to or resembles something else. For
example:
- She looks like my friend Mona. (She
looks similar to Mona)
- She sings like a bird. (Her voice reminds
me of a bird)
