Comparative adjectives are used in sentences comparing the two relative, in this way:

Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than + noun (object).]]> 2018-05-13 12:27:51 UTC https://padlet.com/ciprex/qteco578v2wb/wish/260219111 ciprex https://padlet.com/ciprex/qteco578v2wb/wish/260219332 Superlative adjectives are used to describe a quality possessed at most or at least (the tallest, the smallest, the fastest, the highest). Superlative adjectives are used in sentences in which a unit is compared to a group of people or things.

Noun (subject) + verb + the + superlative adjective + noun (object).]]> 2018-05-13 12:30:41 UTC https://padlet.com/ciprex/qteco578v2wb/wish/260219332 ciprex https://padlet.com/ciprex/qteco578v2wb/wish/260219717 Forming comparatives and superlatives is easy. The form depends on the number of syllables of the original adjective.

Add -er for the comparative and -est for the superlative. If the adjective has a consonant + single vowel + consonant, the final consonant must be doubled before adding the suffix.
Ex: "tall taller tallest
fat fatter fattest
big bigger biggest
sad sadder saddest"]]> 2018-05-13 12:34:54 UTC https://padlet.com/ciprex/qteco578v2wb/wish/260219717 ciprex https://padlet.com/ciprex/qteco578v2wb/wish/260219793 Adjectives with two syllables can form the comparative by adding -er or by putting more to the adjective. These adjectives form the superlative by adding -est or by prefixing most with the adjective. In many cases, both forms can be used, even if one form is more common than the other. If in doubt if a two-syllable adjective can take the comparative suffix or superlative suffix, go on the safe side and use more and more. The adjectives ending in y change the y in i before the suffix.
Ex: "happy happier happiest
simple simpler simplest
busy busier busiest
tilted more tilted most tilted
tangled more tangled most tangled"]]> 2018-05-13 12:36:09 UTC https://padlet.com/ciprex/qteco578v2wb/wish/260219793 ciprex https://padlet.com/ciprex/qteco578v2wb/wish/260219865 The adjectives with three or more syllables form the comparative by putting the more adjective into the adjective and forming the superlative by putting the most of it.
Ex: "important more important most important
expensive more expensive most expensive"
