What to Focus On

  • There are three degrees of comparison: Positive, Comparative, and Superlative.
  • Positive degree is for one person or thing.
  • Comparative degree compares two things and uses 'than'.

  • Add -er/-est for short adjectives.
  • Change 'y' to 'i' for words like happy, easy.
  • Double the last letter for words like big, thin.

  • Use 'as...as' to show equality.
  • The adjective in the middle is in the positive degree.
  • This structure does not change the form of the adjective.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

All adjectives can form comparative and superlative degrees by simply adding -er or -est.

We always use 'than' with the superlative degree.

If a word ends in 'y', just add -er or -est to make comparative and superlative forms.

Memory Tips

Three degrees of adjectives: Positive, Comparative, Superlative

Comparative degree is used when comparing TWO people or things

Superlative degree is used when comparing MORE THAN TWO

Positive degree is used when NO comparison is made
