Niwenglisc:Adjektiv

Grammar

 * Adjectives are either regular or irregular. Regular adjectives form their comparative and superlative forms by adding -er and -est.  Sometimes the 'e' in the superlative is dropped when the adjective does not end in some consonant cluster that would prevent it from being misunderstood.  Irregular adjectives typically have umlaut in the comparative and superlative degrees, and some are formed from different roots.
