Irregular forms in Italian Grammar
Certain adverbs and adjectives are irregular in the comparative and the superlative form.
The most common ones can be said to be :
| Adjective | Comparative | Superlative | |||
| Good | Buono | Better | Migliore | Best | Il migliore |
| Bad | Cattivo | Worse | Peggiore | Worst | Il peggiore |
| Less | Meno di | Lesser | Minore | Least | Meno |
| Well | Pozzo | Better | Meglio | Best | Il miglio |
| Badly | Male | Worse | Peggio | Worst | Il pegio |
| Much | Molto | More | Piu | Most | Maggiormente |
| Little | Piccolo | Less | Meno | Least | Il meno |
It is very important when framing the above to keep in mind the gender as this is an integral part of the translation.
There are some adjectives which agree with the noun whereas there are some which will not agree with them. While comparing one can visibly notice the difference between the adverbs and the adjectives, yet there are some places where the may be identical ( il meno ) etc.
