Comparative and superlatives form of adjectives
This document discusses the comparative and superlative forms of adjectives. It defines what adjectives and syllables are. It then explains that the comparative form uses "-er" or "more" to express "more" of a quality, while the superlative form uses "-est" or "most" to express the highest degree of a quality. It provides examples of how to build the comparative and superlative forms for one, two, and three syllable adjectives, including irregular forms like "good". It concludes with a chart summarizing the rules for forming comparative and superlative adjectives.
Comparative adjectives
Comparative adjectives are used to compare qualities between two things or people. They normally come before other adjectives and show which item has more or less of a quality. There are rules for forming comparatives based on the number of syllables in the adjective, such as adding "-er" or making the adjective longer by changing the ending. Exceptions to the rules include "good" becoming "better", "bad" becoming "worse", and "far" becoming "farther" or "further". When making comparisons, the word "than" is placed between the adjective and the item being compared.
