Remember that only masculine singular adjectives ending in o have a different form for the feminine singular.

The superlative degree of these adverbs coincide with the superlative degree of the corresponding adjectives in their masculine form:
| bueno |
buenísimo |
| mucho |
muchísimo |
| poco |
poquísimo |
In Spanish, adverbs are compared in much the same manner as adjectives. Más or menos is placed before the adverb to form the comparative degree. The superlative is normally not distinguished from the comparative.
Mary eats slower than Wilmer
Maria come mas despacio que Wilmer
There are four irregular comparative adverbs:
| much |
mucho |
| well |
bien |
| more, most |
más |
| better, best |
mejor |
| little |
poco |
| badly |
mal |
| lless, least |
menos |
