In fact I sometimes say it is " more", then change my mind and say "less". I'm not sure, indeed

Hi,
I am just wondering if the sentence ,i.e, "What is also interesting in Aswan is to travel up the Nile in/on a boat" is well-phrased. Those two sound better for me. What is also interesting in Aswan is that one can travel up the Nile in/on a boat or What is also interesting in Aswan is the opportunity to travel up the Nile in a boat.

The speaker says that he has 'answered well', Essam; therefore, the exam must have been easy. He's never taken a 'more easy' exam.
The trouble is that a native speaker would say 'an easier': 'easy' is one of those common 2-syllable adjectives that usually take the -er comparative.

Hello, Mieszko. Your sentences are fine too, but they are rather formal. A native speaker might write them but probably would not utter them.
