Let's learn all about superlative adjectives - when to use them, how to form them, and mistakes to avoid!

Adjectives are words that describe things, and superlative adjectives compare 3 or more things, or compare one thing to all others. Here are some examples:

 - My grandmother is the oldest person in my family.
 - Russia is the biggest country in the world.
 - This is the easiest test I've ever taken.
 - I just finished the most interesting book I've ever read

How do we form superlatives? Let me quickly explain 5 rules and give you a few examples of each. And make sure to listen to the end because I'll explain the most common error I see English learners make with superlatives.
