Como as express\u00f5es em ingl\u00eas seguem regras, memorizar pode ser uma tarefa dif\u00edcil, n\u00e3o \u00e9?<\/span><\/p>\n

Especialmente os comparativos e superlativos, pois as palavras mudam e, dependendo do que est\u00e1 sendo comparado, as preposi\u00e7\u00f5es tamb\u00e9m mudam, tornando essa uma das gram\u00e1ticas mais dif\u00edceis de memorizar.<\/span><\/p>\n

Desta vez, vou focar no \u201csuperlativo\u201d e explicar intercalando exemplos de frases.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

O que \u00e9 o \u201csuperlativo\u201d em ingl\u00eas?<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

O \u201csuperlativo\u201d em ingl\u00eas \u00e9 usado para comparar em situa\u00e7\u00f5es com tr\u00eas ou mais pessoas, indicando entre v\u00e1rias pessoas<\/span>\u3010quem\u3011\u3010em que aspecto\u3011<\/b>\u00e9 o melhor.<\/span><\/p>\n

Por exemplo, como<\/span><\/p>\n

\u30fbJohn is\u00a0<\/span>the<\/b>\u00a0smart<\/span>est<\/b>\u00a0boy in his school.<\/span>
\n<\/span>(John \u00e9 o menino mais inteligente da escola dele.)<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u21d2<\/span>\u201cComparando com todos os alunos da escola,<\/span>\u3010John\u3011\u3010no aspecto de intelig\u00eancia\u3011<\/b>\u00e9 o melhor.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u30fbSarah is\u00a0<\/span>the<\/b>\u00a0<\/span>most<\/b>\u00a0beautiful girl in the town.<\/span>
\n<\/span>(Sarah \u00e9 a garota mais bonita da cidade.)<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u21d2<\/span>\u201cComparando com todas as pessoas da cidade,<\/span>\u3010Sarah\u3011\u3010no aspecto de beleza\u3011<\/b>\u00e9 a melhor.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Assim.<\/span><\/p>\n

Essa forma de compara\u00e7\u00e3o \u00e9 chamada de \u201csuperlativo\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Primeiro, vamos explicar como usar o superlativo.<\/span><\/p>\n

A forma b\u00e1sica do superlativo \u00e9,<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u3010the\u3011 +\u3010adjetivo\/adv\u00e9rbio + est\u3011<\/b>\u00a0ou<\/span>\u00a0\u3010the\u3011 +\u3010most\u3011 +\u3010adjetivo\/adv\u00e9rbio\u3011<\/b>.<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

No superlativo, \u00e9 obrigat\u00f3rio usar<\/span>\u201cthe\u201d<\/b>, e o adjetivo ou adv\u00e9rbio deve receber<\/span>\u201cest\u201d<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dependendo do caso, alguns usam<\/span>\u201cmost\u201d<\/b>, e nesse caso o adjetivo ou adv\u00e9rbio n\u00e3o recebe \u201cest\u201d.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

A forma de montar a frase \u00e9 bem simples. Vamos ver como usar com o primeiro exemplo acima.<\/span><\/p>\n

A frase que queremos formar \u00e9 esta:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u30fbJohn is the smartest boy in his school.<\/b>
\n<\/b>(John \u00e9 o menino mais inteligente da escola dele.)<\/span><\/p>\n

E a frase b\u00e1sica \u00e9<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u30fbJohn is a smart boy.<\/b>
\n<\/b>(John \u00e9 um menino inteligente.)<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Primeiro,<\/span>smart<\/b>deve ser transformado no superlativo<\/span>smartest<\/b>.<\/span>
\n<\/span>Como s\u00f3 h\u00e1 um \u201co mais inteligente da escola\u201d, deve-se<\/span>colocar o artigo definido the antes de smartest<\/b>,<\/span>e n\u00e3o usar o artigo indefinido a<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Assim, vira the smartest boy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Por fim, adicionando<\/span>as informa\u00e7\u00f5es de\u3010quem\u3011\u3010em que aspecto\u3011<\/b>, temos a frase<\/span>
\n<\/span>John is the smartest boy in his school.<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u203b<\/span>Se quiser saber mais sobre artigos, no blog da Nativecamp tamb\u00e9m h\u00e1 explica\u00e7\u00e3o sobre a diferen\u00e7a entre \u201ca\u201d e \u201cthe\u201d. Veja este artigo.<\/span>\r\nnativecamp.net<\/span><\/a><\/pre>\n
\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Ali\u00e1s, nos exemplos acima, o objeto de compara\u00e7\u00e3o \u00e9 indicado por \u201cin \uff5e\u201d. Em frases no superlativo, o escopo da compara\u00e7\u00e3o geralmente \u00e9 expresso por<\/span>\u3010in + substantivo\u3011<\/b>ou<\/span>\u3010of + substantivo\u3011<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n
\u201cin\u201d \u00e9 usado como em \u201cin the school\u201d, quando a pessoa comparada est\u00e1 dentro de um grupo; j\u00e1 \u201cof\u201d \u00e9 usado como em \u201cof the three\u201d, quando se compara entre objetos listados, dando uma sensa\u00e7\u00e3o de individualidade.<\/span><\/p>\n
Especialmente quando se menciona um n\u00famero espec\u00edfico, para expressar \u201co melhor entre X pessoas\u201d, usa-se \u201cof\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n
\u203b<\/span>Para dizer \u201co X\u00ba mais…\u201d, como em<\/span>\u201cthe fifth smartest\u201d, \u201cthe second tallest\u201d<\/b>, adiciona-se o n\u00famero antes do adjetivo\/adv\u00e9rbio. Aqui usamos os n\u00fameros ordinais<\/strong> \u201cfirst \/ second \/ third…\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
Vamos conferir as varia\u00e7\u00f5es do superlativo de adjetivos e adv\u00e9rbios<\/b><\/b><\/h2>\n
\u2460 Adicione \u201cest\u201d ao final da palavra.<\/b><\/h3>\n
 <\/p>\n
Esta \u00e9 a forma b\u00e1sica de varia\u00e7\u00e3o. Como h\u00e1 muitas palavras, basta memorizar as regras de varia\u00e7\u00e3o de \u2461 a \u2464 e as irregulares de \u2465, e para as demais, adicione \u201cest\u201d.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\u2461 Palavras terminadas em \u201cy\u201d trocam o y por i e adicionam est.<\/b><\/h3>\n
 <\/p>\n
Palavras como happy ou angry, terminadas em \u201cy\u201d, n\u00e3o ficam happyest ou angryest, mas sim happiest, angriest. Como \u00e9 f\u00e1cil confundir, memorize bem.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
\u2462 Palavras terminadas em \u201ce\u201d s\u00f3 adicionam st.<\/b><\/h3>\n
 <\/p>\n
Esta \u00e9 uma regra f\u00e1cil de lembrar. Palavras como base ou blue, terminadas em \u201ce\u201d, consideram o e como parte do est, ficando basest, bluest.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\u2463<\/b> Dobre a \u00faltima letra.<\/b><\/h3>\n
 <\/p>\n
Isso \u00e9 especialmente comum em palavras curtas. Quando elas v\u00e3o para o passado, tamb\u00e9m seguem essa regra, ent\u00e3o memorize junto para facilitar.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
\u2464<\/b> Adicione \u201cmost\u201d antes da palavra.<\/b><\/h3>\n
 <\/p>\n
Ao contr\u00e1rio do item \u2463, isso \u00e9 usado para palavras longas. Embora haja exce\u00e7\u00f5es, lembre-se que, na maioria das palavras com tr\u00eas ou mais vogais, usamos \u201cmost\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
