Positive
longus, -a, -um │ long
Comparative
long¦ior (masculine / feminine), longIUS (neuter) │ longer
Adjectives ending in -er e.g. pulcher, pulchra, pulchrum
remove the -a from the feminine i.e. pulchr- before adding the ending >
pulchr¦ior
Therefore, some grammar books will simply say remove the -a
of the feminine of all 1st / 2nd declension adjectives.
