Answer 2

Sure, I'd be happy to help you with the comparative and superlative forms of adjectives, as well as the rules for their formation.

7. a) Comparative and superlative forms of adjectives:

• Crazy:

  • Comparative: crazier
  • Superlative: craziest

• Extreme:

  • Comparative: more extreme
  • Superlative: most extreme

• Tall:

  • Comparative: taller
  • Superlative: tallest

• Popular:

  • Comparative: more popular
  • Superlative: most popular

• Many/Much (not adjectives, but quantifiers):

  • Comparative: more
  • Superlative: most

7. b) Rules for forming comparatives and superlatives of one, two, and three-syllable adjectives:

• One-syllable adjectives:

  • Comparative: Add "-er" (e.g., tall → taller).
  • Superlative: Add "-est" (e.g., tall → tallest).

• Two-syllable adjectives ending in "-y":

  • Comparative: Change the "y" to "i" and add "-er" (e.g., happy → happier).
  • Superlative: Change the "y" to "i" and add "-est" (e.g., happy → happiest).

• Two-syllable adjectives not ending in "-y":

  • Comparative: Use "more" before the adjective (e.g., modern → more modern).
  • Superlative: Use "most" before the adjective (e.g., modern → most modern).

• Three-syllable adjectives:

  • Comparative: Use "more" before the adjective (e.g., beautiful → more beautiful).
  • Superlative: Use "most" before the adjective (e.g., beautiful → most beautiful).

Irregular adjectives:

• Some adjectives do not follow the standard rules for forming comparatives and superlatives. For example:

  • Good:

    • Comparative: better
    • Superlative: best

  • Bad:

    • Comparative: worse
    • Superlative: worst

  • Far:

    • Comparative: farther (for physical distance)
    • Superlative: farthest (for physical distance)
    • Comparative: further (for figurative or abstract distance)
    • Superlative: furthest (for figurative or abstract distance)

These irregular adjectives have unique forms for comparatives and superlatives that you need to memorize because they don't follow the typical "-er" and "-est" or "more" and "most" patterns.
