Happy-happier
 Adding the word “more” before an
adjective
Example:
Beautiful-more beautiful
Expensive-more expensive
Talented-more talented

Superlative Degree
This compares more than two nouns to show
which has the greatest or to show the least degree.
We always use the word “the” before the
adjective
Example: The sun is the hottest among them.
There are also rules in forming the superlative
degree of adjectives
 Adding-est to 1 syllable adjectives
Example:
Tall-tallest; dark-darkest
Big-biggest: low-lowest
 Cute –cutest; soft-softest
 Changing y to I and adding est for
adjectives ending in y
Lovely-loveliest
Pretty-pretiest
Funny-funniest
Happy-happiest
 Adding the word “most” before an
