Comparative and Superlative Adjectives
~8 min
We use comparative adjectives to compare two things (e.g., 'taller'). We use superlative adjectives to compare three or more things (e.g., 'tallest').
Comparing Two Things
The blue boat is faster than the red boat.
Use comparative adjectives ending in -er to show how two things are different. For example, if one dog is tall and another is taller, you use 'taller' to compare the two.
💡 Look for the word 'than' in a sentence; it is a big hint that you are comparing two things.
