Questions & Answers about A câmara do telemóvel novo é muito melhor.
I know that "good" is bom or boa. Why does this sentence use melhor instead of mais boa?
In Portuguese, you cannot say mais bom or mais boa to mean "more good". Just like in English, you must use the irregular comparative melhor, which means "better".
Since a câmara is feminine, does melhor need a feminine ending?
Does muito mean "very" or "much" here? Could I say mais melhor?
Here, muito means "much" (much better). You cannot say mais melhor (more better) in Portuguese, just like you wouldn't in English. You should always use muito melhor to say that something is much better.
