Los adjetivos comparativos y superlativos en inglés se utilizan para comparar varios sujetos atendiendo a una característica. Los adjetivos se miden en varios grados, que son:
Grado positivo : Inteligente – intelligent
Grado comparativo :
de igualdad: tan inteligente como … – as intelligent as …
de superioridad: más inteligente que … – more intelligent than …
de inferioridad: menos inteligente que … – less intelligent than …
Grado superlativo : el más inteligente – the most intelligent
Así pues, vemos que los adjetivos comparativos y superlativos en inglés por regla general se construyen con: as … as, more … than, less … than, y the most, pero esto no siempre es así.
5
El comparativo de superioridad y el superlativo siguen reglas distintas en ocasiones especiales. Veamos una tabla con todos los casos posibles:
Adjetivo Comparativo de superioridad Superlativo
Adjetivos con más de 1 sílabaIntelligent more intelligent than … the most intelligent
Beautiful more beautiful than … the most beautiful She is the most beautiful woman of the world
Adjetivos de 1 sílaba
Fast faster than … the fastest My car is the fastest ( Mi coche es el más rápido)
Talltaller than …
He is taller than youthe tallest
Adjetivos terminados en “y”,
“er”, “le”, “ow”
Slow slower than … the slowest
Easy easier than … the easiest
Adjetivos irregulares
Goodbetter than …
You are better than himthe best
Bad worse than … the worst
Far farther / further than … the farthest / furthest
Old older / elder than … the oldest / eldest
Little less than … the least
Many / Much more than … the most
Conviene hacer algunas observaciones en relación con: Latter. Significa el segundo de dos.
Last. Es el último, el final.
Latest. Significa último hasta el presente. The latest news (Ultimas noticias, las más recientes en tanto no se reciban otras).
Farther. Se refiere generalmente a distancia. (Barcelona is farther from London than from Paris) (Barcelona está más lejos de Londres que de París).
Further. Significa adicional. (I will give you further details later.) (Le daré detalles adicionales -ulteriores- más tarde).
También further puede usarse para distancias, al igual que farther, pero, en cambio, sólo further puede utilizarse en sentido adicional.
Much. Se usa en singular. (I have no much time.) (No tengo mucho tiempo).
Many. Se usa en plural. (I have not many pencils.) (No tengo muchos lápices).
Finalmente, si el superlativo se refiere a lugar (complemento de lugar, según dicen las Gramáticas), en inglés se usa la preposición in. (New York is the biggest town in the U. S. A.)(Nueva York es la
mayor ciudad de los Estados Unidos).
