8
SUPERLATIVE ADJECTIVES-SO SÁNH NHẤT
+ The usage: Teacher explains the usage of the superlative adjectives.
 Superlative adjectives: are used to describe an object which is at the upper or lower
limit of a quality (the tallest, the smallest, the fastest, the highest). They are used in
sentences where a subject is compared to a group of objects.
+ Form:
In the example below, "biggest" is the superlative form of the adjective "big":

AB C
B is bigger than C, but A is the biggest.
 Short adjectives: one-syllable adjectives
Eg: tall, big, hot, large, old,...
S + BE + THE ADJ + est

Short adjectives
1-syllable adjectives old, fast
2-syllable adjectives ending in -y happy, easy
RULE: add "-est" old → the oldest
Variation: if the adjective ends in -e, just add -st large → the largest
Variation: if the adjective ends in consonant, vowel, big → the biggest
consonant, double the last consonant
Variation: if the adjective ends in -y, change the y to i happy → the happiest
 The adjectives good, bad and far have irregular comparatives and superlatives:

good better best

bad worse worst

far farther/further farthest/furthest

Eg: It was the happiest day of my life.


That’s the best film I have seen this year.
 Long adjectives: two-syllable adjectives or more
Eg: modern, expensive, pleasant,...
S + BE + THE MOST + ADJECTIVE

Long adjectives
2-syllable adjectives not ending in -y modern, pleasant

9
all adjectives of 3 or more syllables expensive, intelligent
RULE: use "most" modern → the most modern
expensive → the most expensive
Eg: Peter is the most handsome (person) in the family.
+ PRACTICE:
* Activity 2: Write the superlative form of the adjectives
- Ask students if they can remember the rules to form comparative adjectives.
- Have students write these adjectives in the comparative form

- Check the answers with the class.
- KEY:
the weirdest, the slowest, the rarest, the safest, the ugliest , the prettiest, the

+ Mountain (n): show pictures
+ Peak (n) = the pointed top of a mountain
+ Mammal species: show pictures
