An Overview of the Superlative in English Grammar - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ITTT
Register now & get certified to teach english abroad!
Superlatives are the highest degree of comparison. This means, superlatives are used when we talk about something that is at the top level or the bottom level of a quality. Let's take a look at how the superlative works in the English language.
For one-syllable adjectives, we simply add -est at the end of the word to indicate the superlative. For example:
For two-syllable adjectives that end in "y", we change the "y" to "i" and add "est" to indicate the superlative. For example:
For two-syllable adjectives that don't end in "y" and adjectives with three or more syllables, we add "the most" or "the least" to indicate the superlative. For example:
