Comparatives and superlatives

We can use comparative adjectives and adverbs to compare things or people that are different and separate from each other.

example: Justine is taller than Melissa and Eliot.

Adam reads more slowly than his brother.

We use superlative adjectives and adverbs to compare one member of a group with the whole group.

example : Justine is the tallest person in the family.

Of all the students in the class, Pete did the best in the test.

NOTE: SUPERLATIVE ADVERBS ARE NOT USED VERY OFTEN IN ENGLISH.
