To compare (the most...)


To get this superlative form, just add an article in front of the comparative form of the adjective. 

  Ο ήλιος είναι ο πιο μεγάλος / ο μεγαλύτερος
   The sun is the biggest 

  Η Γη είναι η πιο μεγάλη / η μεγαλύτερη
   The Earth is the biggest 

  Το φεγγάρι είναι το πιο μεγάλο / το μεγαλύτερο
   The moon is the biggest 

It's nice to have a simple rule once in a while, don't you think.
