 THE COMPARATIVES ADJECTIVES
En inglés usamos los adjetivos comparativos cuando comparamos dos personas o cosas.
Reglas para formar comparativos en inglés
1.- Adjetivos cortos
Para la mayoría de los adjetivos con una silaba (adjetivos cortos), añadimos la terminación
"er" para formar su comparativo:
Ejemplos:
 small / smaller (pequeño / más pequeño)
 cool / cooler (fresco / más fresco)
2.- Adjetivos largos
Para muchos adjetivos con 2 o más silabas, usamos "more" más el adjetivo original:
more + adjective
Ejemplos:
 expensive / more expensive (caro / más caro)
 beautiful / more beautiful (bonito / más bonito)
 generous / more generous (generoso / más generoso)
3.- Adjetivos con comparativo especial
Algunos adjetivos tienen una forma comparativa especial:
Ejemplos:
 good / better (bueno / mejor)
 bad / worse (malo / peor)

 ADJETIVOS SUPERLATIVOS
Existen algunas reglas básicas para formar el superlativo de un adjetivo y que a continuac ió n
se detallan:
1.- Adjetivos cortos
Para la mayoría de los adjetivos cortos de una sola silaba (y algunos de dos), el superlativo
es formado añadiendo la terminación "-est"
Ejemplos:
 small / the smallest (pequeño / el más pequeño)
a) Para adjetivos que terminan en la letra "-e", solo agregar al final "-st".
Ejemplos:
 Wide / the widest (ancho / el más ancho)
b) Para aquellos adjetivos cortos que terminan en vocal consonante, se debe doblar la
consonante y agregar "-est"
Ejemplos:
 Fat / the fattest (gordo / el más gordo)
c) Para los adjetivos que terminan en "-y", se cambia esta letra por una "i" y se agrega la
terminación "-est"
Ejemplos:
 Dry / the driest (seco / el más seco)
2.- Adjetivos largos
Para todos los adjetivos largos de dos o más silabas usamos la palabra "most" más el adjetivo
en su forma original:
most + adjective
Ejemplos:
 Expensive / the most expensive (Caro / el más caro)
 Beautiful / the most beautiful (bonito / el más bonito)
3.- Adjetivos con superlativo especial
Estos son algunos adjetivos con superlativo que no sigue ninguna regla en específico.
Ejemplos:
 Good / the best (Bueno / el mejor)

 TEXT USING SUPERLATIVE ADJECTIVES

This vacation was the best vacation of all, since my friends and I were

more united than ever, we felt the happiest in the world, since we

could enjoy the best landscapes of all, the best food in the world and

the most important, the best company that anyone could want.

In addition to this, our families were the most united in the world,

thanks to travel, we also agreed to our plans to one day be the best

professionals in our areas.

And so, these vacations were the most entertaining, the most fun and

the most productive of all.
