In our case, it is the "c" sound in clearly confused. There are some wild alliterations that people make such as...

Big blue bouncing bubbles bounce backwards into the bakery bread.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D

Explanation:

The comparative and superlative degrees are the varying degrees of adjectives that provide comparisons between things. While the comparative form is used for two things, the superlative degree is used when the comparison is between two or more things.

Keira Knightley has lived longer than Kirsten. But Angelina has lived the longest of all.

<em>d. "beautiful"</em>.- <em>more beautiful, most beautiful.</em>

I think that Kirsten is more beautiful than Angelina. But Keira is the most beautiful of all.

In terms of looks, though we don't use "beautiful" to describe males, as the question requires it, I will be using it here.

For me, I think Ibrahimovic looks more beautiful than Robben but Pique is the most beautiful of the three.
