  Comparative And Superlative Adverbs

Definition

The superlative is used for comparing one action or state with all the others in the same category: ... You need to either change the spelling of some adverbs or add another word when you form their comparatives and superlatives. There are also some adverbs (e.g. well, far) with irregular comparative and superlative forms.

HOW TO

 You use them when you want to compare two people, places, or things. They're formed just like a comparative adjective is created.

 

 

Lyrics

Alright, now we know what comparative and superlative

adjectives are but did you also know that there are comparative

and superlative adverbs?

Okay, the rules are the same comparative is still what is

less/What is more compared to things

Superlative is still what is the upper and lower limits? What is

most or what is least?

The only difference about adverbs is really simple you just add

“ly”

So, if you have more quiet, it would be more quietly

Or more slow, it would be more slowly

More serious=more seriously

-ly you just add “ly”

That’s comparative and superlative adverbs

Standards
