    The document outlines rules for forming the comparative and superlative forms of adjectives in English. It divides adjectives into six categories based on their spelling and sounds: ones with one sound ending in e, ones with one sound but not ending in e, ones with one consonant-vowel-consonant sound, ones ending in y with two sounds, ones with two or more sounds, and irregular adjectives. For each category it provides examples and the suffixes to add to make the adjective comparative and superlative.
