Comparative forms
 Comparative adjectives are used to compare
differences between the two objects they modify
(larger, smaller, faster, higher). They are used in
sentences where two nouns are compared, in this
pattern:
Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective
+ than + noun (object).
My hair is longer than hers
His car is smaller than the
one I bought.
Examples
Superlative form
Superlative adjectives are used to describe an
object which is at the upper or lower limit of a quality
(the tallest, the smallest, the fastest, the highest). They
are used in sentences where a subject is compared
to a group of objects.
Noun (subject) + verb + the + superlative adjective +
noun (object).
Your dog ran the fastest of any dog in the race.
We all threw our balls at the same time.
My ball flew the highest..
