To concede something is to admit its truth, usually after you have originally denied it or refused to admit that it may be true. An ADVERBIAL OR ADVERBIAL CLAUSE of concession is one that says in effect, ‘Yes, even though A was true, B happened’.

A word composed of two other words. Examples include:
Crime reporter fortune-teller scarecrow.
As the example show, the two words that form the compound are sometimes written separately, sometimes linked by a hyphen, and sometimes joined together. For many compounds there is a standard way, but other compounds are written in more than one way. For example:
Paper knife paper-knife paperknife.
In modern English there is a tendency to avoid the hyphenated version if possible and use either a single word or two words. In the United States people often prefer a single word (for example airfare). While in Britain two words are preferred (for example air fare).

 With words of one syllable ending in -l, you normally do not double the l, but cruel becomes crueller.
 If it ends in ‘e’ add -r (late becomes later).

The form of an adjective that is used when comparing things. For example:
He is taller than me.
The comparative is formed in different ways according to the length of the base adjective:
 If it has one syllable, then the letters -er are added.
 If the word has three syllables or more, then the word ‘more’ is added before the adjective: more attractive.
 Words of two syllables vary: some add -er and some use ‘more’.
Some can do either, for example clever.
Thus use of ‘more’ and adding -er are alternatives. It is wrong to use both together (e.g. more better).
