Explicación:
Se suele usar "more than.." y "the most.." a excepción de cuando es una palabra corta como "long" y se suelen convertir con prefijo -er (longer) e igualmente con superlativo "longest" solo que con prefijo -est, hay algunos que son irregulares como bad y good que son "better-best" y "worst-worse" que hay que conocer para utilizarlos correctamente.
