You’ll be able to memorize some rules for creating the comparative and superlative forms, but you’ll also need to know how to handle irregular constructions.įor the most part, adjectives and adverbs show degrees of quality or amount with the endings -er and -est or with the words more and most or less and least.
The positive form of an adjective or adverb is the basic form listed in a dictionary-e.g., red, awful (adjectives) soon, quickly (adverbs).
These three words-g ood, better, and best-are examples of the three forms of an adjective or adverb: positive, comparative, and superlative.
Not all things are created equal: some are good, others are better, and only the cream of the crop rise to the level of best.
