أثناء تصفحي في المواقع وجدت شرح متسلسل لـ
Comparatives & Superlatives
وحبيت أنقله لكم للإستفادة
نبدأ مع الـ Comparatives
Adjectives of just one syllable form the comparative by adding .. er
Bright … brighter
Fast … faster
If a one syllable adjective ends in "e", simply add .. r
Nice … nicer
Fine … finer
For some adjectives, it is necessary to double the last letter before adding.. er
Big … bigger
Flat … flatter
All adjectives of three or more syllables form the comparative with .. more
Beautiful …more beautiful
Comfortable … more comfortable
Adjectives of two syllables are more complicated. To see which is the usual form you should see your dictionary.
Most adjectives of two syllables form the comparative with .. more
Famous …more famous
Thankful … more thankful
However, some adjectives of two syllables form the comparative with .. er
Those that end in "y" , change the "y" to "i" and add ..er
Happy … happier
Funny … funnier
Those ending in a vowel-sound that is not stressed
Yellow …yellower
Simple …simpler
Tender …tenderer
In addition, there are some (common) irregular comparative adjectives
Good …better
Bad …worse
Far …farther or further
Little (quantity) …less
Much … more
Ill …worse
Old …older or elder
الـ Superlatives
The superlative is the form of an adjective or adverb that expresses the
.highest or a very high degree of the quality of what is being described
For example, if you are describing a noun, in the sentence
"e.g Everest is the highest mountain in the world
the word highest is a superlative adjective. If you are describing a verb
use a superlative adverb
"e.g Of all the runners, Sara ran the fastest
The word fastest is a superlative adverb
