7. Rhyme Time!
Superlative, superlative, how do we use you? We catch you and see you, but oh what do we do! Don't get me started on those comparatives, they make my life harder than it already is. How in the world will we live without knowing this! Don't fret my children, do not. The two are easier than it is taught. Just give the few rules a thought. Superlatives and comparatives are mostly adjectives but do not forget the few adverbs that make sentences better yet. Adjectives that you want to transform into comparative with one syllable deserves the suffix "-er". Ones with two syllables adore when you pair them up with "more". If there are three syllables, then match it up with more of course. Now we start with Superlatives, the ones that gives us trouble. One syllable words should be given the best by ending in "-est". When you have two or more syllables give the unchanged adjectives a toast for being paired up with "the most". Now you know the basic rules and you won't have to break a sweat when Mrs. Gray hands you the next test
