Explanation:

Comparative degree in adjectives, also known as modifiers, is used to compare either the differences or similarities between two nouns. Or in other words, the comparative degree is used in sentences where two objects, animals or people are compared.

To form the regular comparatives it is necessary to consider the number of syllables; generally, adjectives with one or two syllables form the comparative degree by adding -er at the end of the word. Similarly, adjectives which have three or more syllables usually form the comparative by preceding the adjective with the word "more".

In the particular case of the example provided, the modifier which can be used in the comparative degree is pretty, resulting in prettier.
