El Superlativo – en español Posted by Adir on Dec 17, 2009 in Spanish Grammar
El superlativo expresa el grado más intenso de la calidad (característica) de un adjetivo. El superlativo absoluto se forma agregándole al adjetivo el sufijo ‘ísimo/ísima’ o utilizando adverbios como muy, sumamente, extremadamente, etc. Algunos ejemplos:

Wow, this is good stuff. I am native speaker. However, I do not speak correct Spanish. I come to live in States when i was only 14yrs old. Made it a point to speak as much English as possible. Dated only English speaker, and my Spanish went out the door. I still speak it, but it’s not solid, i often stumble around. i think, i am make it sound worse than what really is. However, when I speak with someone that just arrived from a Latin country it puts me to same. Especially if the are college graduate. This is good, good stuff.
