Superlatives

Superlatives

1. It is the action of comparing one thing, place, animal or people of others, but in this case overcoming one another using the auditory more and less

2. Adjective

   • Add
     • -est : when the adjective only has one sibala
     • Most- : when the adjective has two sibalas onwards
   • Note: if the subject is terminated in the letter Y it must be changed to the letter I and add the corresponding additive

3. The superlative degree denotes quality in the highest degree and as in Spanish, “the” is used in front of the adjective in the superlative form (see below).

   • Examples:
     • Juan is the fastest .(Juan es el más rápido.) Angela’s room is the cleanest.(La habitación de Angela es la más limpia.) I am the tallest.(Soy el más alto.) New York is the biggest city in the United States.(Nueva York es la ciudad más grande de los Estados Unidos.)
   • Note: If the adjective is possessive, "the" is not used. Also, “the” is not used if we compare something with itself.
     • Examples: His smartest student is Lisa. (His smartest student is Lisa.) New York is coldest in January. (New York is colder in January.)
