a / an + comparative adjectives

Post by Marcin »

Is it correct to add a or an to an adjective in comparative form? If yes, what would be the difference if we added it? For example:

I want to be healthier person.

I want to be a healthier person.

Thank you in advance :)

Yes, correct and (in the example you cite) necessary.
