Now we’re going to compare three or more things. nwrgitcptromts
But this time we’re going to use longer adjectives, btstmwrgituslgadjecvs
adjectives that have at least three syllables. adjctvstthvatlsttrslbs

N: Now let’s use three words to talk about different things that we think are
“the most …in town.” nltustrwdttk(a)btdftstwstka,tmst,it
For example, fexapl
I say. “That’s a beautiful house.” is,tt(a)btfhs
And you say, “Yes, it’s the most beautful house in town.” adys,ys,ittmstbtfhsit
I Say, " that’s a powerful sports car is,ts(a)pwfsptc
And you say, I'ts the most powerful sports car in town. adys,ittmstpwtsptcit
Ready? Begin. wd,bg
That’s a beautiful house. tt(a)btfhs
M: Yes, it’s the most beautiful house in town. ys,ittmsbtfhs(i)t
N: that’s a powerful sports car ts(a)pwfsptc
M: yes, I'ts the most powerful sports car in town. ys, ittmspwfsptcit

N: You know that shorter adjectives like big and cheap yntstagctcslkbgacp
form their superlatives by adding–est at the end: ftspltvsbadi,estated
the biggest, tbgst
the cheapest, tcpst
the tallest, tlst
the smallest. tsmlst
So we can say, swcs
“He’s the smartest boy in the class.” hstsmlstbitcls
We can also say, wcass
“he’s the most intelligent boy in the class.” hstmstitlgtbicls
Let’s repeat each of those sentences. ltrptectsstcs
M: He’s the smartest boy in the class. hstsmlstbitcls
F: He’s the most intelligent boy in the class. hstmstitlgtbitcls
N: Listen to this talk about three houses: lsttstk(a)btrhs
a small house, a larger house, asmhs,alghs
and a very big house. ad(a)vrbghs
Notice the adjectives. ntctadjectvs
Do they have –est at the end, sthv,estated
like smartest, lssmtst
or do they use the most in front, odtustmst(i)ft
like the most in telligent? lktmst(i)tlgt
F: The small house is the most inexpensive of the three. tsmhsistmstiexpsvttr
It’s the smallest, ittslst
of course, but also the most practical to buy. ofcs,btastmstpctctb

It’s not the most popular itnttmstppl
because it isn’t as economical as the other two. bcsitececnmcl(a)stott
