The document discusses superlative adjectives, which express the highest or extreme degree of a quality in a group. For one-syllable adjectives, the superlative is formed by adding "-est" to the end. For adjectives ending in a consonant-vowel-consonant, the final consonant is doubled before adding "-est". Adjectives ending in "y" change the "y" to "i" before adding "-est". For multi-syllable adjectives, the superlative is formed by using "the most" or "the least" before the adjective. Examples are provided to illustrate the different rules.
