The document discusses how to form comparative and superlative adjectives in English. It explains that one-syllable adjectives form the comparative by adding -er and the superlative by adding -est. For adjectives of more than one syllable, the comparative is usually formed by adding "more" and the superlative by adding "most". It also notes some irregular comparatives like "good", "bad", and "far".
