Superlative

In grammar, the superlative is the form of an adjective (or adverb) that indicates that the person or thing (or action) modified has the quality of the adjective (or adverb) to a degree greater than that of anything it is being compared to in a given context. English superlatives are typically formed with the suffix -est (e.g. healthiest, weakest) or the word most (most recent, most interesting).

Which sentence contains a dependent clause and a superlative adverb?
Q. A. If you want me to be honest, I would say Jon tries the least. B. If you want me to be honest, I would say Jon tries less than others. C. If you want me to be honest. I would say Jon tries the least.

A. They're being tricky. With regular adjectives, the superlative ends with "-est" (fine, finer, finest). But "honest" is not a superlative. The superlative here is the irregular "least". The way you posted it, A and C are identical and meet the conditions.

how i have to form a comparative and a superlative with a compound noun?
Q. I mean with compounds nouns as high-tech how i have to form the comparative and the superlative? I have to count the syllables in both words or only in a word?
Asked by - Sat Feb 26 07:04:04 2011 - Homework Help - 2 Answers - Comments

A. Count the sound syllables in the adjectival/adverbial part only. Single syllables can be compared using "er"and "est",multi syllable must use more & most.
