    The document discusses the formation of comparative and superlative forms of adjectives in English. For short, one-syllable adjectives, the comparative form typically ends in "-er" and the superlative in "-est". Long adjectives are made comparative by adding "more" and superlative by adding "most". Adjectives ending in "y" add "-ier" for comparative and "-iest" for superlative. Exceptions for comparative forms include doubling the final letter for adjectives ending in "e" like "big" and "fat".
