superlative adjective worksheet again.

♪If an adjective ends in a vowel and a consonant, we double the consonant:

big→bigger→biggest
♪If an adjective ends in a consonant and –y, we change –y to –i and add –er

or –est: happy→happier→happiest

♪We use more and most to make comparatives and superlatives for most two

syllable adjectives and for all adjectives with three or more syllables:

interesting→more interesting→most interesting

♪Irregular comparatives and superlatives

❤good→better→best ❤bad→worse→worst ❤many→more→most
