Comparatives and Superlatives

Forming regular comparatives and superlatives

1. We use comparatives to compare two things or two people. (e.g She is taller than her husband.)

2. 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)

3. To form comparatives and superlatives you need to know the number of the syllables in the adjective. Syllables are like "sound beats".

For instance:

"find" contains one syllable, but "finding" contains two — find and ing.

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

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. Tow 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.

Peter (6 years old) Charley (5 months old)Peter is older than Charley.

Charley is younger than Peter.
