Comparatief en Superlatief
Add -er to the base adjective to form the comparative. Spelling rules apply: double a final consonant after a short vowel (druk → drukker), and drop a silent -e before adding -er.
Add -st to the base adjective when used predicatively (after zijn). Add -ste when used attributively (directly before a noun).
Some very common adjectives have irregular comparative and superlative forms that do not follow the -er / -st pattern.
