THE SUPERLATIVE

(The most.., the best.., the worst..))

• The use of the superlative is characterized by putting the preffix -est at the end of an adjective. For example:

I am the happiest member of my family

Brian is the craziest student in his school

Alice is the cutest girl in our little village

• To use the superlative in longer adjectives, it is used the most, the best, the worst.

Paris is the most beautiful city all around the world

Lionel Messi is the best Soccer player in the world

This is the worst cake I have ever tasted. However, it was made by one of the best

cook of France.

SUMMARY

• -est for short adjectives and at the end of the word.

• For long adjectives, it is used the most, the best etc., before the adjective.
