short
The word "short", if you add the letters 'e'and 'r'.
"Short" is a five-letter word that becomes shorter when you add two letters.
"What five letter word becomes shorter when you add two letters to it?"short + er = shorter
short
I guess you mean "made"? When you add an e to "mad", it becomes "made". The e makes the a long instead of short (to sound like "ate" instead of "at"). When the e is added, "mad" becomes a completely different word. In short: "Mad" and "Made" are two different words.
If you add two letters to short (adding "er"), it makes "shorter."

The 5 letter word is short. It becomes shorter when 'er' is added.

To make a short vowel word into a long vowel word, you usually add a silent "e" at the end of the word. This "magic e" changes the vowel sound from short to long. For example, "kit" becomes "kite" and "hop" becomes "hope."
