Comparative, Superlative and These forms are used to compare and express degrees

of difference or equality between entities in various


Equality contexts, such as describing characteristics, abilities, or
quantities.
Comparative and superlative forms are used to compare
and express degrees of difference between two or more
entities. The comparative form is used when comparing
two entities, while the superlative form is used when
comparing three or more entities. Equality is used when
stating that two entities are equal or have the same
degree of a particular quality. Here's how they are used:

Comparative adjectives: Add "-er" to short adjectives


or use "more" + adjective for long adjectives.

Example: She is taller than her sister. The movie is more


interesting than the book.
Comparative adverbs: Use "more" + adverb.
Example: He runs more quickly than I do.

adjectives and adverbs. For example, "good" has the
comparative form "better" and the superlative form
"best." Additionally, some adjectives and adverbs have
irregular comparative and superlative forms, such as
"bad" (comparative: worse, superlative: worst).
