Grandfather’s Old Watch

by: Syrelle France S. Paterter

Back when we were still young, my sister and I used to go to our

grandparents’ house to play with our cousins. I could still remember the
two old rusty swings by the garden. Kuya Anton, the eldest among us,
used to sway both Alyana and me until his arms got more tired than
before.
One day, while we were playing inside the big house, I saw my
grandfather looking at his watch. It was quite old, but he seemed to
treasure it.
“Lolo, your watch is already old. Don’t you want to replace it with a
new one?” I used to ask him then. But he just smiled at me and tapped
my shoulders using his calloused big hands.
When my grandfather died, we put the watch in his casket and
buried it with him. My father said that it was my Lola’s wedding gift to him.
That’s when I realized how important that old watch is to my Lolo.

1. Who owned the old watch?

a. Lolo
b. Lola
c. Father

2. Why is the watch important?

a. because it keeps an old treasure map
b. because it was a gift
c. because it was an heirloom

What is It

learner. Did you That’s great! It

words in the
story?

• The words young, eldest, more tired, and old show the degrees of
comparison of adjectives.

The POSITIVE degree is used when we are simply describing a person or thing.

Example:
The ipil-ipil tree is tall.

The COMPARATIVE degree is used when we are comparing two persons or things.
We usually add –er at the end of the adjective or use word like “more” before the
adjective.

Example:
The coconut tree is taller than the ipil-ipil tree.

The SUPERLATIVE degree is used when comparing three or more persons or

things.
Example:
The narra tree is the tallest of the three.
• The series of words “two old rusty” and “calloused big” show the
order of adjectives in the sentences.

4 CO_Q2_English4_Module4
 • For the ORDER of ADJECTIVES, we follow this order: Number,
Opinion, Size, Age, Shape, Color. Origin, Material, Purpose
(NOSASCOMP)
• We don’t use comma in between adjectives when they belong to
different adjective groups.
Example: two round brown (number, shape, color)
