1 Comparisons<br />

1 Many adjectives use more and the most for the comparative and superlative form<br />

e.g. more intelligent > the most intelligent<br />

more useful >the most useful<br />

The exceptions to this are all adjectives of one syllable (see table below), and adjectives that end in -y<br />

or -ow.<br />

e.g. easy > easier > the easiest<br />

happy > happier > the happiest<br />

narrow > narrower > the narrowest<br />

yellow > yellower > the yellowest<br />

Most l-syllable Comparative Superlative<br />
