bad worse than the worst
little less than the least
much more than the most 74
many more than the most
far farther than the farthest
far further than the furthest

to distance but they may have the meaning of "additional".
I live farther from here than you do.

2. OLDER and OLDEST refer to persons or things; ELDER and ELDEST can only be used for
members of the same family:
My elder sister is afraid of mice.
My older friend is afraid of wasps.
but ELDER can not be placed before THAN so OLDER is used:
My sister is two years older than I am.
