Answers
Answer: Degrees of Comparison are used when we compare one person or one thing with another.
There are three Degrees of Comparison in English.
They are:
1. Positive degree.
2. Comparative degree.
3. Superlative degree.
Let us see all of them one by one.
1.Positive degree.
When we speak about only one person or thing, We use the Positive degree.
Examples:
• This house is big.
In this sentence only one noun “The house" is talked about.
• He is a tall student.
• This flower is beautiful.
• He is an intelligent boy.
Each sentence mentioned above talks about only one noun.
The second one in the Degrees of Comparison is...
2.Comparative degree.
When we compare two persons or two things with each other,
We use both the Positive degree and Comparative degree.
Examples:
a. This house is bigger than that one. (Comparative degree)
This house is not as big as that one. (Positive degree)
The term “bigger" is comparative version of the term “big".
Both these sentences convey the same meaning.
The superlative form is used to describe one or more people, places or things within a larger group of people, places, or things, or to state that an action is performed to the highest degree within a group of actions just like it.
Examples
Adjectives in the superlative form are used to describe one or more people, places or things within a larger group of people, places, or things.
For example, in the sentence, 'Katie is the prettiest girl in the neighborhood,' the superlative form of the adjective 'pretty' (prettiest) is used to describe one person, 'Katie,' within the larger group of 'girls in the neighborhood.' Likewise, in the sentence, 'Katie and Megan are the fastest girls on the track team,' the superlative is used to describe two people, 'Katie and Megan,' within the larger group of 'girls on the track team.'
