In Hindi, there are no special markers of comparison degrees. The comparative and superlative degrees of adjectives are both expressed by special constructions.
Comparative degree
In the comparative construction, the adjective is preceded by the noun with which the comparison is made, along with the postposition से se (literally 'from'). This noun takes the oblique form.
Ex: लड़की अपने पिता से लंबी है।
laRkii apne pitaa se lambii hai.
'The girl is taller than her father.'
पति पत्नी से मोटा है।
pati patnii se moTaa hai.
'The husband is fatter than the wife.'
If the comparative degree is used without an object of comparison, then the words और aur 'more' or और भी aur bhii 'more, even more' are placed before the adjective.
Ex: जब तुम लाल साड़ी पहन लेती हो तो और सुंदर बन जाती हो।
jab tum laal saaRii pehan letii ho to aur sundar ban jaatii ho.
'When you put on the red sari, you become even more beautiful.'
मुझे और भी हलके हरे रंग के परदे की ज़रूरत है।
mujhe aur bhii halke hare rańg ke parde kii zaruurat hai.
'I need the curtain of lighter green color.'
The words ज़्यादा zyaadaa 'much, too much, many, too many, more' and कम kam 'little, less' are also used in comparisons.
Ex: यह क़मीज़ ज़्यादा महँगी है।
yeh qamiiz zyaadaa mehaNgii hai.
'This shirt is very expensive.' or 'This shirt is more expensive.' (The translation will depend on the context.)
चार सात से कम है।
caar saat se kam hai.
'Four is less than seven.'
Superlative degree
For the superlative, the construction सब से sab se (literally 'from all') is used. It is placed before the adjective.
Ex: मैं सब से अमीर हूँ।
maiN sab se amiir huuN.
'I am the richest.' (Literally: 'I from all rich am.')
इन औरतों में से वह सब से पतली है।
in auratoN meN se vo sab se patlii hai.
'Among these women she is the slimmest.'
