1. DEGREES OF COMPARISON
Definition
The Degrees of Comparison in English grammar are made with the Adjective and Adverb words to show how big or small, high or low, more or less, many or few, etc., of the qualities, numbers and positions of the nouns (persons, things and places) in comparison to the others mentioned in the other part of a sentence or expression.

Types
1.      Positive Degree
The Positive Degree of an adjective in comparison is the adjective in its simple form. It is used to denote the mere existence of some quality of what we speak about. It is used when no comparison is made.
Examples :
·         Very few countries in the world are as large as China.
·         No other man was as strong as Hercules.
·         Very few Indian saints were as popular as Vivekananda.
·         No other boy in the class is as intelligent as James.
·         Very few boys in the class are as tall as John.

2.      Comparative Degree
The Comparative Degree denotes the existence of a higher degree of the quality than the positive. It is usedwhen two things (or two sets of things) are compared.
Examples :
·         China is larger than most other countries in the world.
·         Hercules was stronger than any other man.
·         Vivekananda was more popular than most other Indian saints.
·         James is more intelligent than any other boy in the class.
·         John is taller than any other boys in the class.

3.      Superlative Degree
The Superlative Degree denotes the existence of the highest degree of the quality. It is used when more than two things are compared.
Examples :
·         China is one of the largest countries in the world.
·         Hercules was the strongest man in the world.
·         Vivekananda was one of the most popular Indian saints.
·         James is the most intelligent boy in the class.
·         John is the tallest boy in the class.

2. QUESTION WORD
A question word or an interrogative word is a function word used to ask a question, such as whatwhenwherewhowhomwhy, and how. They are sometimes called wh-words, because in English most of them start with wh- (compare Five Ws).
