Question

18. When forming the superlative degree of an adjective, what is commonly added to the end of the word?

Answer 1

→ One syllable words: add “est” to the word. Remember that it’s sometimes necessary to double the final consonant (example: big to biggest).

→ One syllable words ending with an "e", only add "st" (examples: fine to finest or rare to rarest).

→ Two syllable words ending with a "y", change the "y" to an "i" and add "est” (examples: crazy to craziest and silly to silliest).

→ Two and three syllable words use "most" or "least” (examples: most desirable and least expensive).

⇨ Your answer is A -est!

There you go! I hope this helped, if there’s anything just let me know! ☻
