An Adjective of Quality can be used in three degrees: Positive, Comparative, and Superlative. They are called the three degrees of comparison.

The Positive degree indicates an adjective in its simple form. It denotes the mere existence of some quality. It is used when no comparison is made :

Ex- This is a good book .

Gold is a precious metal.

In Comparative degree there is always a comparison between two things or sets of things. It indicates a higher degree of quality than the positive. It is used when two things are compared :

Ex- That book is better than your book.

Gold is more precious than copper.

The Superlative degree denotes the highest degree of quality and is used when more than two things are compared:

Ex- This book is the best of all the books.

Gold is the most precious of all metals.
