The Degrees of Comparison of Adjectives

Степени сравнения прилагательных

Как и в русском языке, в английском прилагательные имеют три степени сравнения: положительную, сравнительную и превосходную.

Например, вкусный – вкуснее – самый вкусный

Образование:

У односложных и некоторых двусложных прилагательных (заканчивающихся на – r или – y) степени сравнения образуются путем прибавления к положительной форме суффиксов – er для сравнительной формы и – est для превосходной (эта форма используется с артиклем the).

Cheap – cheaper – t he cheapest

Happy – happier – the happiest

Правописание:

Удваивается согласная после краткой гласной (чтобы сохранить закрытый слог): big – bigger – the biggest.

Конечная – e опускается: nice – nicer – the nicest.

У большинства двусложных прилагательных, а также прилагательных, состоящих из трех и более слогов, степени сравнения образуются при помощи слов more и the most.

Expensive – more expensive – the most expensive

Useful – more useful – the most useful

Исключения, которые необходимо запомнить:

Good – better – the best

Bad – worse – the worst
