Answer:

Superlative degree adjectives

Step-by-step explanation:

Superlative degree adjectives are used to compare one noun to a group of nouns (two or more elements), in other words, to compare one element against the rest of a group.

For adjectives of one or two syllables, the superlative is formed by the article “the” and the adjective + the “-est” ending (the craziest); for adjectives of three or more syllables, the superlative follows this structure: the + most + adjective (the most important), and for irregular adjectives like good and bad, there is no a specific rule, good becomes the best and bad becomes the worst.

The highest or lowest degree of comparison between three or more nouns is called the superlative degree. The superlative degree of comparison uses the word "most" to be added before the word for adjectives with more than three syllables, or attaching the suffix -est for adjectives with one or two syllables.
