There are three forms of adjectives used to compare objects:-Positive degree - compares two equal things
Comparative degree ( -er, more) - compares two unequal things
Superlative degree (-est, most) - compares three or more unequal things
The comparative degree of the adjective is used to compare two things that are unequal. The word 'stronger' is the comparative degree of the word 'strong'.
The comparative degree is obtained by adding '-er' behind the adjective or sometimes, by using the word 'more' in front of it (e.g.'bigger than', 'more beautiful').
*Remember that the comparative degree is always followed by the word 'than'
The superlative degree of the adjective is used to compare three or more unequal things.
The word 'biggest' is the superlative degree of the word 'big'.
The superlative degree is obtained by adding '-est' behind the adjective or sometimes, by using the word 'most' in front of it ( e.g.'the biggest', 'most beautiful').
*Remember that the superlative degree is always used with the word 'the' in front of it.
