In het Nederlands noemen we ze trappen van vergelijkingen.

Gebruik: Om mensen of dingen te beschrijven

Je vergelijkt ze met elkaar. 

Comparative: Vergrotende trap

  Superlative: Overtreffende trap. 

C

B

Box C is the smallest of all.

Comparisons 

Woorden van 1 lettergreep/syllable:

- Comparative: -er

- Superlative: -est

old

older

the oldest

Comparatives & superlatives 

Voor woorden van één lettergreep en  woorden van twee lettergrepen die eindigen op medeklinker + y gebruiken we -er en the ...... -est
My cat is lazy, yours is lazier, my friend's cat is the laziest. 
Norway is cold, Russia is colder, Antarctica is the coldest. 

Voor woorden van twee of meer lettergrepen (behalve die hierboven op y) gebruiken we more & the ...... most. 

This phone is expensive, that one is more expensive, the newest iPhone is the most expensive 

Comparisons 

Woorden van 3 lettergrepen of meer:

- Comparative: more 

- Superlative: most

expensive

more expensive

the most expensive

Wanneer het woord eindigt op:

-e? → alleen -r of -st

 close-closer-closest

korte klinker? → verdubbelt medeklinker

 big-bigger-biggest

medeklinker + -y? → -ier of -iest

 dry-drier-driest

Comparatives and superlatives

• Sommige woorden zijn uitzonderingen en hebben onregelmatige vormen:

• good - better - best
  
• bad - worse - worst

LET OP: 

Bij vergelijken schrijf je than met een a! (then met een e gaat over tijd) 

Als je met more / most werkt verandert het bijvoeglijk naamwoord niet. 
Dus: hot / hotter 
Maar NIET more expensiver / the most expensivest
