Denotes the superlative quality at the highest level and as in Spanish , "the " before the adjective used in the superlative form .

EXAMPLE:
Comparatives: I feel HAPPIER, and I've gotten BETTER at it.
"JUAN IS FASTER THAN MARK"
Superlative: The race is my BIGGEST and BEST challenge.
"JUAN IS THE FASTEST"

Vague language is very common, especially in speaking. We often add words and phrases such as about, kind of, sort of, and that kind of thing to make what we say less factual and direct.
