Birth year inflation

Compare today's prices with the prices of the year when you were born or the year of your choice with birth year inflation.


Self-study activity:
You can use birth year inflation to practise modifying comparisons. Example:
In 1970 the price of petrol was a lot/much cheaper than today.
Today the price of meat is three times as expensive as in 1975.

At lower level you can use birth year inflation to revise how to say the numbers in English.
