Grammar
Superlative Adjectives
Na lição 32 aprendemos a usar comparative adjectives. Neste, veremos superlative adjectives, que, em vez de comprar uma coisa com a outra, compara algo ou alguém com com grupo.
Ex.: She is the tallest girl in her class. -> Ela é a menina mais alta da sua sala.
Assim como os comparativos, os superlativos também se separam em duas categorias: short e long.
Short
Consideramos adjetivos curtos:
- Aqueles com apenas uma sílaba: big, old, small, fast, etc.
- Aqueles com duas sílabas terminados em y: happy, silly, pretty, etc.
Regras:
1. Normalmente adicionamos the -est.
Ex.: She is the oldest in her family. -> Ela é a mais velha da sua família.
2. Se o adjetivo terminar em e apenas adicionamos -st. (nice -> nicest)
Ex.: Alexandra gave me the nicest gift. -> Alexandra me deu o presente mais legal.
3. Se o adjetivo terminar em cvc (consoante + vogal + consoante), dobramos a última consoante. (big -> biggest)
Ex.: My house is the biggest on the street. -> A minha casa é a maior da rua.
4. Se o adjetivo terminar em y, tiramos o y e acrescentamos -ier. (happy -> happiest)
Ex.: Today was the happiest day of my life. -> Hoje foi o dia mais feliz da minha vida.
Long
Consideramos adjetivos longos:
- Aqueles com duas sílabas não terminados em y: modern, pleasant, etc
- Aqueles com três sílabas ou mais: expensive, beautiful, etc
Regras:
Para adjetivos longos temos apenas uma regra: acrescentamos the most antes do adjetivo.
Ex.: I want my website to be the most modern. -> Eu quero que o meu site seja o mais moderno. (de todos)
- This computer is the most expensive in the store. -> Este computador é o mais caro da loja.
Irregular adjectives
Alguns adjetivos são irregulares e não seguem as regras acima. Neste caso, precisamos decorar as suas formas irregulares.
| good → the best |
| well (healthy) → the best |
| bad → worst |
| far → farthest/furthest |
Ex.: This cellphone is the best there is. → Este celular é o melhor que existe.
