Comparing Qualities

Level 4

Many adjectives and adverbs form comparisons with bolj and najbolj; others have common synthetic or irregular forms.

How It Works

Many adjectives and adverbs form comparisons with bolj and najbolj; others have common synthetic or irregular forms. Comparisons with kot introduce the comparison target.

Bolj zanimiv compares interest; najbolj zanimiv chooses the highest degree within a relevant set. Agree zanimiv with a noun when it is adjectival, but keep an adverb such as počasi unchanged in bolj počasi.
