The 3 Different Degrees of Adjectives:


The three degrees of an adjective are positive, comparative and superlative. When you use them depends on how many things you’re talking about:

• A positive adjective is a normal adjective that’s used to describe, not compare. For example: “This is good soup” and “I am funny.”

• A comparative adjective is an adjective that’s used to compare two things (and is often followed by the word than). For example: “This soup is better than that salad” or “I am funnier than her.”

• A superlative adjective is an adjective that’s used to compare three or more things, or to state that something is the most. For example: “This is the best soup in the whole world” or “I am the funniest out of all the other bloggers.”
