Forming Superlatives with Adjectives

Question:

Complete the sentences by forming the superlative using the adjective given. Follow the model.

Modelo: Alicia Es la más Alta

Answer:

De la clase, Alicia es la mejor

To form superlatives in Spanish, we often use "the most" or "the best" followed by the adjective. This indicates that someone or something is the highest, best, most intelligent, or most any other quality in comparison to others. In the model given, it shows that Alicia is the tallest in her class and also the best or most superior in terms of height. Let's see more examples of forming superlatives with adjectives:

Examples:

1. Juan Es el más Alto - Juan is the tallest.

2. Marta Es la más Rápida - Marta is the fastest.

3. Carlos Es el más Fuerte - Carlos is the strongest.

4. Ana Es la más Inteligente - Ana is the most intelligent.

5. Luis Es el más Guapo - Luis is the most handsome.

By using this structure, we can easily compare different individuals or things and highlight who possesses a certain characteristic to the greatest extent. It helps us express superlative qualities effectively in Spanish.
