The concept of stress "closed syllable" in English:
Syllables ending with one or more consonants (except R) and only one vowel in the middle are called closed syllables, such as big [big], desk [desk]. Vowels read their short sounds in closed syllables. For example, a reads as [a], e reads as [e]
And stressed syllable refers to a syllable that is read more clearly. Stressed syllable refers to monosyllabic words
When there is only one consonant in the stressed closed syllable words, we should first double write the consonant, then add - er to form the comparative grade, and add - est to form the superlative
big→bigger→biggest
thin→thinner→thinnest
hot→hotter→hottest
