Le superlatif
Le superlatif compares three or more people, things, or ideas. It expresses the idea of the most or the least.
In English, we often use “the most,” “the least,” or “-est” for the superlative:
She is the fastest swimmer.
They have the most toys.
Bon, mauvais, bien:
Just like in English, the adjectives bon and mauvais and the adverb bien have special forms.
English: Good, better, best; bad, worse, worst.
Adjectives:
The adjective stays in its normal place (the ones that come before the noun stay before the noun; the ones that come after the noun stay after the noun).
The definite article (le, la, les) agrees with the noun: masculine, feminine, singular, plural.
Adverbs and verbs:
The definite article is always le.
Nouns:
The definite article is always le.
Note: de comes before the noun.
The preposition de:
To indicate “in” or “of” with the superlative, use de (du, de la, de l’, des).
