Comparative degrees
Rule 1. When comparing two items/people, employ a comparative degree by adding "-er" to the adjective word in conjunction with the word "than" or, in certain cases, "more".

Examples of the comparative degree:

She is more intelligent than her siblings.

She is more attractive than her brother.

When comparing more than two things or people, the superlative degree is employed by adding "-est" to the end of the sentence.

We also use the word "most".

Examples of the superlative degree:

He is the most powerful mayor in the world.

He is the most attractive actor.

Rule 2. When comparing the attributes of a single item or person, the word "more" is employed.

She is more intelligent than skilled.

Some exceptions of the comparative degrees:

  • bad — worse — the worst;

  • far — farther — farthest;

  • good — better — the best;

  • late — later — latest/last;

  • little — less — least;

  • well — better — the best.
