Explicação:

O superlativo em inglês possui algumas regras:

Adjetivos acima de 3 sílabas - adiciona o "the most" e repete o adjetivo.

Ex: The most important

Caso o adjetivo seja de uma sílaba só - adicione -est no final. Caso ele acabe com consoante-vogal-consoante, repete a última letra e coloca -est.

Ex: Tall - Tallest

      Big (consoante-vogal-consoante) - Biggest

Caso o adjetivo tenha duas sílabas, ele pode tanto ser do primeiro, quanto do segundo modo. Caso ele seja terminado em y, remova o y, e adicione -iest.

Ex: Simple - Simplest

     Tangled - Most tangled

     Happy (terminada em y)- Happiest

Há, também os irregulares. São alguns exemplos:

Good - Best

Bad - Worst

Little - Least

Much - Most
