N.B.—When an adjective precedes its noun it is invariable.

Comparison of Adjectives. In Irish there are two comparisons—(1) the comparison of equality, (2) the comparison of superiority.

The comparison of equality is formd by placing (or ), “as” or “so,” before the adjective, and, “as,” after it. (This  becomes  before the article, and then causes eclipsis if the noun be singular.)
