Less trash feels good

To form the comparative of an adjective, English adds - er to shorter words ("prettier") or places more in front of more complicated ones ("more beautiful"). To form the superlative of an adjective, English adds -est ("prettiest") or uses most ("most beautiful"). To form the comparative of an adverb, English adds -er to those that do not end in -ly ("faster") and places more in front of those that do end in -ly ("more quickly"). To form the superlative of an adverb, English adds -est to those that do not end in -ly ("fastest") and places most in front of those that do ("most quickly").

No matter how long the adjective or adverb, German always adds -er ("schöner", "interessanter"). Never use mehr for this purpose.. higher. wider. deeper.the world is moving always faster

Wir haben den süßeren Wein bestellt. We ordered the sweeter wine. Die schlankere Frau ist nicht unbedingt die attraktivere. The slimmer woman isn't necessarily the more attractive one. Er fährt schneller, wenn es nicht regnet. He drives faster when it isn't raining. Sie steht ziemlich links, aber ihr Mann ist konservativer. She's pretty left-wing, but her husband's more conservative.

To form the superlative, German always adds -st or -est. Other than the few exceptions mentioned below, superlative adjectives always require a further ending. competition: the thickest book in the world the fastest ship in the fleet

Spieglein, Spieglein an der Wand, wer ist die Schönste im ganzen Land? Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest one of all? Wir haben den trockensten Wein bestellt. We ordered the driest wine. Die schlankste Frau ist nicht unbedingt die attraktivste. The slimmest woman isn't necessarily the most attractive one. Spieglein, Spieglein an der Wand, wer ist die Schönste im ganzen Land? Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest one of all?

The superlative forms of adverbs or predicate adjectives take the form of "am –sten Er singt am lautesten. He sings the loudest. Ich bin am glücklichsten, wenn ich allein bin. I'm happiest when I'm alone. Some superlative forms of adverbs can end in "-stens" (without "am") Wir essen meistens in der Küche. We mostly eat in the kitchen. Hunde sind hier strengstens verboten. Dogs are strictly forbidden here.
