なんとなく、LOEのリスニング再開。ここは2005年くらいからお世話になっている。

5 times saltier than seawater.

5倍しょっぱい、というのが「salty」の比較級でそのまま「saltier」となっていた。


salty で思い出したのが、「y」をつけた時に、「多い」意味となると随分前に取り組んだ資料に記載されていた。

例として

branchy tree (枝の多い木)

The mountainy fields rose quietly outside it towards gorse and heather.

mountainyで「隆起が多い」。

yの代わりに 「ish」を付けたものがどうたらこうたら、というのを思い出したが、今回は未調査。
