Question

Answer 1

Answer:

We can express the same idea in several different ways. By using a variety of structures in your writing, you can make it more interesting. In this lesson, we can learn about expressing the same idea using different forms of the same adjective.

An adjective can exist in three forms – the positive, the comparative and the superlative.

The positive form is used when no comparison is implied.

We use the comparative to compare one person, thing etc with another person, thing etc.

We use the superlative to compare somebody / something with the whole group to which he/she/it belongs.

Study the following examples.

Rani is the prettiest girl in the class. (Here we make a comparison using the superlative degree.)

Rani is prettier than any other girl in the class. (Here we make a comparison using the comparative degree.)

No other girl in the class is as pretty as Rani. (Here we make a comparison using the positive degree.)

Another example is given below.

Dogs are more faithful than any other animals. (Note the use of any other in this structure.)

Dogs are the most faithful animals.

No other animal is as faithful as the dog.

Tea is the most popular beverage in the world.

No other beverage is as popular as tea.

Tea is more popular than any other beverage.

Answer 2

Superlative degree - The lion is the most ferocious animal.

• Degrees of comparison are used when two or more nouns with similar qualities are described in a sentence.
• The three degrees of comparison are - Positive degree of comparison, comparative degree of comparison, and superlative degree of comparison.
• The given sentence is in the positive degree as the adjective (ferocious) is used in the basic form.
• The superlative degree of comparison is the highest degree of comparison, which is used to represent the highest or lowest possessing quality among the given nouns.
• To change the positive degree to a superlative degree, the following rules are followed

1. The object in the positive degree is used as the subject in the superlative degree.
2. The superlative form of the degree is used. (in this case, 'most' is used before the adjective ).
3. Removal of 'as...as/so...as' and word phrase 'No other', from the sentence.
4. After the adjective, the subject in the positive degree is changed to the object in the superlative degree.

Hence, The Superlative Degree Of The Given Sentence Is -The Lion is the most ferocious animal.
