परिभाषा - Adjective (विशेषण) वह शब्द होता है जो किसी संज्ञा (Noun) के बारे में अतिरिक्त सूचना देता है।
Comparison by Adjectives (विशेषणों द्वारा तुलना) Degrees के प्रकार Adjectives तथा Adverbs की Degrees होती हैं। Degrees तीन होती हैं
1. Positive Degree (पॉजिटिव डिग्री) Positive Degree साधारण कथन में प्रयोग की जाती है। इस Degree में किसी से तुलना नहीं की जाती है। यह अपने मूल रूप में ही रहती है। इसमें केवल गुण के सामान्य स्तर की चर्चा की जाती है।
2. Comparative Degree (कम्पेरेटिव डिग्री) जब दो व्यक्तियों अथवा दो वस्तुओं की तुलना की जाती है, तो Comparative Degree का प्रयोग किया जाता है। Comparative Degree के पश्चात् प्रायः than का प्रयोग करते हैं, किन्तु कुछ शब्दों (junior, senior, inferior, superior, prefer.........आदि) के साथ to का प्रयोग करते हैं।
Rule : Positive Degree के अन्त में आवश्यकतानुसार
(i) - er जोड़ देने से अथवा
(ii) Positive Degree के पहले more शब्द लगा देने से Comparative Degree बन जाती है। जैसे
big - bigger
small - smaller
beautiful - more beautiful
fast - faster.
3. Superlative Degree (सुपरलेटिव डिग्री) जब एक व्यक्ति अथवा एक वस्तु की तुलना दो से अधिक अथवा सब व्यक्तियों अथवा वस्तुओं से की जाए, तो इसका प्रयोग किया जाता है।
Rule : Positive Degree के अन्त में आवश्यकतानुसार
(i) - est जोड़ देने से, अथवा
(ii) Positive - Degree के पहले most लगा देने से Superlative Degree बन जाती है। जैसे
big - biggest
small - smallest
beautiful - most beautiful
fast - fastest
ध्यातव्य - Superlative Degree के पहले हमेशा the का प्रयोग होता है, जैसे - the biggest house, the most beautiful girl.
Positive Degree Comparative Degree
तथा Superlative Degree बनाने के नियम
Golden Rule 1. जिन शब्दों के अन्त में दो consonants होते हैं, उनके अंत में प्रायः - er लगा देने से Comparative Degree बन जाती है तथा - est लगा देने से Superlative Degree बन जाती है। कुछ उदाहरण देखिये -
Golden Rule 2. जिस शब्द के अन्त में -e होता है, उसके अन्त में केवल - तथा –st जोड़ देने से प्रायः Comparative तथा Superlative Degree बन जाती है।
Golden Rule 3. जिस शब्द के अंत में - y हो consonant - elhe -ier तथा -iest लगा देने से Comparative Superlative Degree Gift बन जाती है।
Golden Rule 4.
जिस शब्द के अन्त में एक vowel और एक consonant हो तो consonant को double करके -er तथा -est लगा देने से Comparative व Superlative Degree बन जाती है।
Golden Rule 5:
तीन सिलेबिल और प्रयः दो सिलेबिल वाले शब्दों के पहले more तथा most लगा देने से Comparative तथा Superlative Degree in बन जाती है।
