Exercises on degrees of comparison of adjectives in English
description

How do you say that one place is quieter than another? Or who is the kindest in the family? All of these are degrees of comparison of adjectives. They allow you not only to describe, but also to compare: people, things, phenomena, feelings. And if you want to speak English not monotonously, but interestingly and accurately, you can't do without them.
In English, there are three degrees of comparison for adjectives: positive (normal form), comparative, and superlative.
For example: fast → faster → the fastest beautiful → more beautiful → the most beautiful
On this page, you will find useful and varied exercises on degrees of comparison for adjectives — from simple tasks to tests. The exercises are suitable for:

• those who are just beginning to understand the topic;
• those who are confused by the rules and want to reinforce them;
• and anyone who wants to speak English lively, not boringly.

Work through the tasks, check the answers, and master the skill until it becomes automatic. Let's get started!

Choose the correct option that is grammatically and logically appropriate in the context. Pay attention to the endings -er / -est and constructions with more / most.

There is one mistake in each sentence. Your task is to find it and write the correct version. This exercise will help you reinforce the rules for forming the comparative and superlative degrees.
