Wild Life III

1. For most short adjective, we form superlatives by adding '-est' at the end of the word.

cold→coldest

old→oldest

2. If the adjective ends in '-e', we just add '-st'

safe→safest

rare→rarest

3. If the adjectives ends in '-y', it will still end with '-est' in superlative form of adjectives.

pretty→prettiest

ugly→ugliest

Some superlative adjectives are irregular;

good→better→best

bad→worse→worst

Lastly, to form a sentence with superlative adjectives, we need to put 'the' with the superlative adjectives. For example,

"It's the ugliest animal" ✓

"It's ugliest animal" ✕

In the next slide, you'll be given a word to change it into short adjective and superlative adjective. For example;

Cold

- colder

"It's colder inside than outside"

- coldest

"I think this block of ice is the coldest one in the room"
