Comparing Adverbs
Adverbs can have a comparative and superlative form.

For adverbs with one syllable (except ‘early’), we use the -er and -est endings to convert
them into comparative and superlative adverbs.

For example:

• Teachers always say that students must work harder.

• The children were playing in the garden, seeing who could jump the highest.
