COMPARATIVES &
SUPERLATIVES

2.

Comparatives
We use comparatives to compare differences between the two
objects they modify (larger, smaller, faster, higher). They are used in
sentences where two nouns are compared, in this pattern:
Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than + noun
(object).
EXAMPLE
Tom is Taller than Simon

SUPERLATIVES
Superlative adjectives are used to describe an object which is at the
upper or lower limit of a quality (the tallest, the smallest, the fastest,
the highest). They are used in sentences where a subject is
compared to a group of objects.
Noun (subject) + verb + the + superlative adjective + noun (object).
Jane is the most beautiful woman
Sarah is the youngest one
Elizabeth is the oldest in the group
