• In a superlative degree, one noun is compared with two or more nouns.
• Superlative degree of an adjective ends with 'est' and 'the' is used before a superlative degree.
• If the word has three or more syllables, 'most' is used as a superlative degree.
• Therefore, the superlative degree for pretty is prettiest.
• For example, She is the prettiest girl.
