Comparatives are formed by adding נאס ''năs'' 'more' and אס ''ăs'' 'most' before the comparative form of the adjective, which is usually formed with -ă or palatalization + -ă: ףוֹאר, נאס-ףוֹאר'א, אס-ףוֹאר'א ''fuar, năs-fuařă, ăs-fuařă'' 'cold, colder, coldest'. adjectives of Hebrew and Aramaic origin don't palatalize: מיאוס, נאס-מיאוסא ''mies, năs-miesă'' 'bad'.

~~There is no tense change for comparatives unlike in Irish where ''níos mó'' 'bigger' changes to ''ní ba mó'' in the past tense.~~

~~מוֹר - נאס-מוֹא - אס-מוֹא ''mur - năs-mua - ăs-mua'' = big - bigger - biggest~~
