    Explanation:

    We use comparative to compare similarities or differences between people and things.

    We make comparative adjectives when we add the termination - er to the end of the word (for one-syllable words), or we use the form more + adjective (for two, three, or more syllable adjectives).

    We use superlative to describe the extreme quality of things or persons.

    We form the superlative when we add the termination - est at the end of an adjective or by using the construction most + adjective.

    An absolute adjective represents a non-gradable adjective that does not have comparative or superlative, so it cannot be graded.

    For example: dead, unique, ideal, eternal, sufficient, whole, etc.
