Comparative adjectives compare two things, often by adding “-er” to the adjective (e.g., “taller” or “faster”) or by using “more” (e.g., “more beautiful” or “more expensive”).

Superlative adjectives, on the other hand, compare three or more things and typically add “-est” (e.g., “tallest” or “fastest”) or use “most” (e.g., “most beautiful” or “most expensive”).
