Degrees of Adjectives
They can express degrees of modification:
Gladys is a rich woman,but
Josie is richer than Gladys, and
Sadie is the richest woman in town.

3. The degrees of comparison are known as the positive
Gladys is a rich woman,but
the comparative frequently adds the suffixes -er although
we need -ier when a two-syllable adjective ends in “y”
Happy-happier , otherwise we use more when an adjective has more
than one syllable.
Josie is richer than Gladys
the superlatives frequently adds the suffixes -est although
we need -iest when a two-syllable adjective ends in “y”
Happy-happiest, otherwise we use most when an adjective has more
than one syllable.
Sadie is the richest woman in town.
