This document outlines the rules for forming regular comparatives and superlatives in English from adjectives. It discusses how to add "-er" or "-est" based on the number of syllables and ending of the adjective. It also provides examples of irregular comparatives and superlatives like "bad", "good", and "much". The rules are that for one syllable adjectives, "-er" or doubling the final consonant is added for comparatives and "-est" for superlatives, and for two+ syllables "more" or "most" is used instead of changing the adjective.
Degrees of comparison refer to the three forms of an adjective or adverb used to show the different levels of a quality or characteristic. The three degrees are positive, comparative, and superlative.Understanding and correctly using degrees of comparison is essential for expressing nuances in language and making clear distinctions between different levels of comparison.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
1. • Forming regular comparatives and superlatives
• We use comparatives to compare two things or two
people. (e.g She is taller than her husband.)
• Superlatives are used, however, to show the
difference between more than two things or more
than two people. (e.g Paris is the biggest city in
France)
• To form comparatives and superlatives you need to
know the number of syllables in the
adjective. Syllables are like "sound beats".
2.
3. The rules to form comparatives and superlatives:
• 1. One syllable adjective ending in a silent 'e' —
nice
• Comparative — add 'r' — nicer
• Superlative — add 'st' — nicest
• 2. One syllable adjective ending in one vowel and
one consonant — big
• Comparative — the consonant is doubled and 'er'
is added —bigger
• Superlative — the consonant is doubled and 'est'
is added—biggest
4. • 3. One syllable adjective ending in more than one
consonant or more than a vowel (or long vowels)
— high, cheap, soft.
• Comparative — 'er' is added — higher, cheaper,
softer.
• Superlative — 'est is added —
highest, cheapest, softest.
• 4. A two-syllable adjective ending in 'y' — happy
• Comparative — 'y' becomes 'i' and 'er' is added —
happier
• Superlative — 'y' becomes 'i' and 'est' is added —
happiest
5. • 5. Two-syllable or more adjectives without 'y' at the
end — exciting
• Comparative — more + the adjective + than — more
exciting than
• Superlative — more + the adjective + than — the most
exciting
• Examples:
• The Nile River is longer and more famous than the
Thames.
• Egypt is much hotter than Sweden.
• Everest is the highest mountain in the world.
• This is one of the most exciting films I have ever seen.
