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.
