more kind; more caring
The comparative form of *kind*, meaning more nice and caring than someone or something else.
الگوی کاربرد:
[someone] is kinder [to someone] than [someone/something]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes say *more kind* instead of *kinder*. While *more kind* is not wrong, *kinder* is more natural in most everyday speech. Learners may also confuse *kinder* with the German word *Kinder* meaning *children*, or with the brand name *Kinder* on chocolate products, which is unrelated to this comparative form.
هممعنیها
nicer (Very close in meaning, but more general; does not always include the idea of deep care that 'kinder' can suggest.)
متضادها
crueler (Direct comparative opposite, meaning more willing to hurt others or not care about their feelings.)

young children in kindergarten
An informal word that some teachers use to talk about the children in a kindergarten class.
الگوی کاربرد:
[someone] teaches the kinder
اشتباه رایج:
Learners may think this *kinder* is simply the comparative form of *kind* and try to use it that way in school contexts (e.g., *I like the kinder class* meaning *younger class*). In this informal noun sense, it refers specifically to kindergarten children, not to people who are more kind.
هممعنیها
kindergartners (Standard, widely understood term; more neutral and common than the informal shorthand *kinder*.)
متضادها
adults (Refers to fully grown people, in contrast with very young school children.)
