Write 5 words of the superlative degree
Answers
A superlative adjective compares three or more nouns. This takes the comparison of nouns to the highest degree. An example would be: "My mother's cooking is the best." The rules for making superlative adjectives are almost identical to the rules for making comparative adjectives. They are:
One syllable words - add "est" to the word. Remember that it is sometimes necessary to double the final consonant. Examples are: strong to strongest and big to biggest.
One syllable words ending with an "e" - only add "st" like fine to finest or rare to rarest.
Two syllable words ending with a "y" - change the "y" to an "i" and add "est." Two examples are crazy to craziest and silly to silliest.
Two and three syllable words - use "most" or "least." Examples include most desirable and least expensive.
He is the oldest one at the country club.
That is the thinnest dog in the kennel.
You have the curliest hair I have ever seen.
She was the nicest person there.
Those are the simplest instructions.
