“ Tatha, bangun
! liat udah jam berapa sekarang ! “ teriak mama dengan nada agak kesal. Tathapun
terbangun dengan lemas dan menoleh kearah jam yang ada di kamarnya. Matanya
langsung terbelalak melihat jarum jam yang menunjukkan pukul 06.50. “ yaampun
mama, kenapa ga dibangunin dari tadi. “ kata Tatha dengan sedikit berteriak. “
udah, kamunya aja yang susah dibangunin ! “ jawab mama. Awalnya, ia bingung apa
yang harus dilakukan pertama kali. Dan akhirnya ia langsung ngibrit ke kamar
mandi. Seusai bersiap – siap, Tatha pamit pada mama untuk pergi kesekolah.

Superlative and Comperative
Superlative
the superlative is the form of an adverb or adjective that
expresses a degree of the adverb or adjective being used that is greater than
any other possible degree of the given descriptor. English superlatives are
typically formed with the suffix -est (e.g. healthiest, weakest)
or the word most(most recent, most interesting).
Example of superlative: "she is [the] most beautiful
[of all the women here tonight]"
Simply put the word 'superlative' is defined as
· (a noun) an
exaggerated mode of expression (usually of praise): "the critics lavished
superlatives on it";
· (an
adjective) the greatest: the highest in quality;
· the
superlative form of an adjective: "best" is the superlative form of
"good", "most" when used together with an adjective or
adverb.
Comperative
The comparative in English is generally expressed by a
combination of two elements/words, by a focusing element (-er, more, less, as)
and a second word introducing the second part of the comparison (as or than).
As described in the following section, the suffix -er is used with
many adjectives, particularly monosyllabic ones (and some adverbs), and more is
used with all other words (other adjectives and adverbs, nouns). The particular
suffixes/words that express the comparative are in bold in the following
examples:
a. She is smarter than him.
b. She is more intelligent than him.
c. Your music is nicer than my music.
d. Your music is more pleasant than my
music.
e. Sam helps less often than Susan does.
f. He laughs more than you do.
g. More boys wanted to play than girls.
h. Tom is as annoying as he is useless.

used to
FORM
[used to + VERB]
Example:
- I used to go to the beach every day.
It is better not to use "used to" in questions or negative forms; however, this is sometimes done in informal spoken English. It is better to ask questions and create negative sentences using Simple Past.
