Easy Comparisons: Wušej and Njež
To make simple comparisons meaning 'more than', you often use a comparative adjective (like 'better', 'bigger') followed by the word njež (than). The word wušej is the comparative form of wusoki (tall/high) and means 'higher' or 'taller'.
- Using njež: Moja knigła jo zajmowjejša, njež twója (My book is more interesting than yours). Wón jo staršy, njež ja (He is older than me).
- Using wušej: Ta góra jo wušej, njež ten bugel (That mountain is higher than that hill). Wón skóći wušej ako norma (He jumped higher than the norm).
