Exercise 5.2: Comparison using +NIRU (audio)

Here is a row of sentences type 'something happens / someone does'. Adjust them to express the same statement at higher degree. This is the first exercise of its kind so we will just use the indicative mood as training. As a matter of facts the contemporative would have been more idiomatic in quite a number of the sentences but let us not komplicate matters more than necessarily. The sentences are all understandable in spite of the less than perfect indicative. Remember that transitive as well as intransitive statements can be put in comparative and superlative. In Greenlandic comparison is nothing but a derivational morpheme with all the normal uses as any other morpheme.
