c. Superlative Degree
We use superlative degree to
show the greatest degree of a
quality or quantity among three or
more people, things, or animals.
Please pay attention to the
following patterns and examples of
superlative degree:
Subject + To be + Adjective + -est/most +
Complement
For an adjective with one
syllable, you must add -est.
Example:
1) Devi is the smartest student
in the class.
2) Math is the hardest subject in
the school.
