COMPARATIVES versus SUPERLATIVES

How to use comparatives and superlatives

Comparatives
Comparatives are used to compare two things.

You can use sentences with THAN, or you can use a conjunction like BUT.

Examples:

Jiro is taller than Yukio.
Yukio is tall, but Jiro is taller.

Superlatives
Superlatives are used to compare more than two things.

Superlative sentences usually use THE, because there is only one superlative.

Examples:

Masami is the tallest in the class.
Yukio is tall, and Jiro is taller, but Masami is the tallest.
