Welcome to this tutorial.

00:02.970 --> 00:10.010
Today we're going to talk about degrees of adjectives these superlative form.

00:10.020 --> 00:11.430
Let's get started.

00:12.400 --> 00:19.810
Remember that an adjective is a word or set of words there modifies In other words describes a noun

00:19.930 --> 00:21.700
or pronoun.

00:21.700 --> 00:28.730
Also note that adjectives may come before or after the word they modify.

00:28.750 --> 00:32.320
Have a look at the example over here.

00:32.380 --> 00:34.990
This is a cute cat.

00:35.050 --> 00:37.390
This cat is cute.

00:37.390 --> 00:45.910
Now the word cute is an adjective and it modifies the noun cat and knows that in the first sentence

00:46.000 --> 00:57.220
the adjective comes before the now Cat and in the second it comes after the noun cat now most adjectives

00:57.280 --> 01:04.030
can show a degree of quality or quantity by forming two degrees of comparison.

01:04.030 --> 01:07.450
The comparative and the super lot of degrees.

01:07.480 --> 01:15.050
Now these degrees are formed from the positive degree which is the usual form of adjectives.

01:15.070 --> 01:22.110
Now have a look at the examples we know positive degrees for example.

01:22.110 --> 01:32.940
This is a tall building comparative for this building is taller than that one supermodel.

01:32.970 --> 01:41.730
This is the tallest building now to form a sentence using super native adjectives.

01:41.750 --> 01:51.980
We use the following formula noun or pronoun as the subject of the sentence plus verb plus the plus

01:52.280 --> 01:59.690
superlative adjective plus noun or pronoun as the object of the sentence.

01:59.690 --> 02:02.560
Have a look at the example below.

02:02.660 --> 02:09.380
My room is the largest one in the house my room.

02:09.400 --> 02:20.790
Subject is verb the largest super native adjective house object of the sentence.

02:20.890 --> 02:26.800
Remember that sometimes the group that is being compared with can be admitted.

02:26.890 --> 02:30.100
How a look at the example below.

02:30.100 --> 02:34.270
She is the prettiest girl in the office.

02:34.270 --> 02:40.880
Note that this part of the sentence girl in the office can be admitted.

02:41.050 --> 02:50.590
She is the prettiest now when an adjective ends with one syllable to form the super negative.

02:50.600 --> 03:00.450
We simply add ESD for example smart the smartest and when an adjective ends with a vowel class a continent

03:00.810 --> 03:03.980
we double the continent and then add E S T.

03:04.110 --> 03:13.270
For example big the biggest and when an adjective ends with a continent plus a y we keep the consonant

03:13.510 --> 03:21.850
then change white eye and then add e s t for example dry the driest.

03:21.880 --> 03:34.770
Now when an adjective ends with two syllables we add E T or the most for example happy happiest tangled

03:35.190 --> 03:41.580
the most tangled and when an adjective ends its three syllables.

03:41.580 --> 03:51.430
We simply add the most for example beautiful the most beautiful.

03:51.470 --> 04:01.950
Now let's have a look at the comparative and super not a form of irregular adjectives positive good

04:02.430 --> 04:17.340
comparative form would be better superlative the best bad comparative worse super not of the worst far.

04:17.560 --> 04:29.960
Comparative farther further super negative the farthest the furthest little comparative less superlative

04:30.230 --> 04:38.210
the least many are in much comparative more superlative the most.
