3. Superlative Degree









               We use superlative degree to show


               the  greatest  degree  of  a  quality  or



               quantity  among  three  or  more


               people, animal, or things.








               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.
