Comparative adjective and superlative adjective











Comparative adjective

This screen shot comes from the article, Hotel deaths linked to drug mixture from the November 3, 2007 edition of the Standard. Since the root word, early, is a short, two syllables word ending in Y, to make it a comparative, change y to i and add "er."



Superlative adjective

This screen shot comes from the article, Dam plan a major threat to world's oldest irrigation system from the November 3, 2007 edition of the Standard. Since the root word, early, two syllables word ending in Y, to make it a superlative, change y to i and add "est."

Nice job, Charis; you are only the second student in the class to complete the assignment correctly - you get extra credit.
