adjective that ends in the letter e
such as nice cute large, then you
form the comparative by adding
only the letter r not er. Then those
adjectives become nicer cuter
larger

If you have a one or two syllable
adjective that ends in the letter y
such as happy crazy messy or dry

with adjectives is to use as….as or

Using the superlative
Superlative is used with adjectives
to show or describe an object
which is at the upper or lower limit
of a quality.
It is used in a sentence where the
subject is compared to a group of
objects.
![Page 55: Making comparisons using · Making comparisons using the comparative BY ROBERT BERRY “ ” Comparative is used to show difference between 2 things or 2 people or groups The lion](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042601/5fa00a63dab11171763b64fb/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)

For one syllable adjectives such as
rich, poor, old, young you would
make the superlative by adding
the letters est to the adjective used
so those adjectives would become:
richest, poorest oldest youngest.
