Answers
Answer: The three degrees of adjectives are positive, comparative, and superlative. The comparative and superlative degrees are used to compare between two or more subjects or objects. the comparative degree is used to compare between the two persons. The superlative degree is the highest qualification of an adjective.
EXAMPLE FOR POSITIVE DEGREE:
Tina is smart.
here, smart is a positive degree adjective
EXAMPLE FOR COMPARITIVE DEGREE:
Tina is smarter than Abhishek
In this sentence, the comparative degree (smarter) of the adjective 'smart' is used to compare between the two persons.
EXAMPLE FOR SUPERLATIVE DEGREE:
