To find the comparative form of an adjective, we usually follow a few simple rules depending on how the word is spelled and how many syllables it has.

1. One-syllable words: Usually, just add -er to the end (e.g., tall → taller).
2. Two-syllable words ending in -y: Change the y to i and add -er (e.g., sunny → sunnier).
3. Longer words (2+ syllables) or words that sound awkward with -er: Add more before the word (e.g., modern → more modern).
4. Special cases: Some words change completely or have specific spelling rules (like doubling the last letter if it ends in a single vowel + consonant, e.g., big → bigger).

Let's go through each word on your list:

1. classy: Ends in 'y'. Change 'y' to 'i' and add 'er'. → classier
2. modern: Two syllables, doesn't end in 'y'. Use "more". → more modern
3. affordable: Three syllables. Use "more". → more affordable
4. luxurious: Four syllables. Use "more". → more luxurious
5. spacious: Three syllables. Use "more". → more spacious
6. new: One syllable. Add "-er". → newer
7. convenient: Four syllables. Use "more". → more convenient
8. sunny: Ends in 'y'. Change 'y' to 'i' and add 'er'. → sunnier
9. tall: One syllable. Add "-er". → taller
10. far: This is an irregular adjective. It can be farther (for physical distance) or further (for metaphorical distance/degree). Both are often accepted, but "farther" is the standard physical comparison. Let's list farther (or further).
11. fine: Ends in 'e'. Just add "-r". → finer
12. clean: One syllable. Add "-er". → cleaner
13. fair: One syllable. Add "-er". → fairer
14. bright: One syllable. Add "-er". → brighter

Final Answer:
1. classier
2. more modern
3. more affordable
4. more luxurious
5. more spacious
6. newer
7. more convenient
8. sunnier
9. taller
10. farther (or further)
11. finer
12. cleaner
13. fairer
14. brighter
