Comparative. We construct the comparative with als and add the ending er to the adjective.

Example: Friederike läuft schneller als Maria.

 

Superlative. We put am or the definite article in front of the adjective, and add ste(n) to the end.

Example: Friederike läuft am schnellsten.

 

 

Examples:

My sister is not as tall as I am. - Meine Schwester ist nicht so groß wie ich.
We prefer to travel by train. - Wir fahren lieber mit der Bahn.
The more people, the better. - Je mehr Leute, desto besser.
Most people don't drive as fast as he does. - Die meisten Leute fahren nicht so schnell wie er.
