Объяснение:
Односложные прилагательные и наречия, а также двусложные, оканчивающиеся на -y, -e, -er, -ow, образуют сравнительную степень путем прибавления к положительной степени (так называют начальную форму прилагательного или наречия) суффикса -er, а превосходную степень — с помощью суффикса -est. (slow - slower - the slowest, easy - easier, the easiest)
Если прилагательное или наречие оканчивается на согласную букву с предшествующим кратким ударным звуком, то конечная согласная буква удваивается (hot - hotter- the hottest).
Если прилагательное или наречие оканчивается на -y с предшествующей согласной буквой, то при образовании сравнительной и превосходной степени -y меняется на -i- (busy - busier - the busiest).
Многосложные прилагательные и наречия, а также большинство двусложных (кроме оканчивающихся на -y, -e, -er, -ow) образуют сравнительную степень при помощи слова more (более), а превосходную степень — при помощи слова most (самый, наиболее), которые ставятся перед прилагательным или наречием в форме положительной степени.
Важно различать, когда требуется использовать прилагательное, а когда - наречие. Прилагательные описывают существительные и могут использоваться после глаголов be, get, become. А наречия описывают глаголы, отвечая на вопросы как? каким образом?
