This document discusses the formation of comparative and superlative adjectives in English. It explains that comparative adjectives are used to compare two things, and are formed by adding "-er" to one-syllable adjectives or using "more" with adjectives of two or more syllables. Superlative adjectives indicate something is unique or an extreme, and are formed by adding "-est" to one-syllable adjectives or using "the most" with those of three or more syllables. Some irregular adjectives like "good", "bad", and "far" are also noted. Examples are provided throughout to illustrate the rules.
