When we want to say that one thing or person is more or less than the other, we use the comparative form of the adjective plus the word 'than.' |

Example |
Bread is cheaper than butter.
'Cheaper' is the comparative form of the adjective 'cheap'. We are saying that bread costs less and butter costs more. |
||
When we want to say that one thing or person is unique, at the very top, we use the superlative form of adjectives. For example: |
|||
Cornelio is 'the worst' boss of the factory.
'The worst' is the superlative form of the adjective 'bad.' We are saying that Cornelio is the ultimate, bad boss. |
