Le superlatif permet d’établir une comparaison entre une personne ou une chose et un ensemble de
personnes ou de choses.
Le superlatif de supériorité (le plus)
• Formation pour les adjectifs courts : the + adjectif + -est
B Mark is the tallest boy in our class but he isn’t the strongest.
Marc est le garçon le plus grand de notre classe mais il n’est pas le plus fort.
On retrouve les mêmes modifications orthographiques qu’au comparatif de supériorité :
nice the nicest slim the slimmest pretty the prettiest
• Formation pour les adjectifs longs : the most + adjectif
B It’s the most interesting film I’ve ever seen.
C’est le film le plus intéressant que j’aie jamais vu.
Le superlatif d’infériorité (le moins)
On forme le superlatif d’infériorité avec the least suivi d’un adjectif long. Pour les adjectifs courts, on
préfère utiliser le superlatif de supériorité de l’adjectif contraire.
B The least expensive bike in the shop. Le vélo le moins cher du magasin.
B The smallest student. L’étudiant le moins grand / l’étudiant le plus petit.
Superlatifs irréguliers
good the best le / la meilleur(e) bad the worst le / la plus mauvais(e), le / la pire
far the farthest / the furthest le / la plus éloigné(e)
old the oldest ou the eldest (membres d’une même famille) le / la plus âgé(e)
B I’m the eldest of three children. Je suis l’aîné(e) de trois enfants.
Mettez l’adjectif entre parenthèses au superlatif de supériorité.
a. A knife is one of ................................................... tools*. (simple)
b. It is ................................................... animal I’ve ever seen. (big)
c. Tara is ............................................................... girl I know. (eccentric*)
d. Meeting native Americans* was my ................................................... experience. (good)
e. Bob is ............................................................... boy I know. (absent-minded*)
f. John’s mother is ................................................... nurse in the hospital. (busy)
Mettez l’adjectif entre parenthèses au comparatif ou au superlatif de supériorité,
selon le cas.

b. In the sixties, the Beatles were ................................................... singers in the world. (popular)
c. Sending an e-mail is .................................................... than writing a letter. (fast)

6Le superlatif
• Le complément du comparatif est introduit par la préposition in s’il s’agit d’un lieu et par
of devant all, un nombre ou une notion de temps.
This necklace is the nicest in the shop but it is also the most expensive of all.
Ce collier est le plus joli du magasin mais c’est aussi le plus cher de tous.
• L’adjectif épithète se place toujours devant le nom, même au superlatif.
They’re the most expensive perfumes. Ce sont les parfums les plus chers.
absent-minded : étourdi native American : Amérindien
classmate : camarade de classe pound : livre (unité de poids : 453 g)
