in the oppositional presentation of comparison as a pre-requisite for the expression of the category as such. In this expression of the category the basic form is the unmarked member, not distinguished by any comparison suffix or comparison auxiliary, while the superiority forms (i.e. the comparative and superlative) are the marked members, distinguished by the comparison suffixes or comparison auxiliaries.
In English, some comparisons are regular, like the ones that add -(i)er and -(i)est, or more and most. And some are irregular, like good-better-best. So too in Latin: there are some adjectives that show predictable changes and some that do not. Used Literature:

Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was American humorist, satirist, lecturer and writer. He was one of the foremost American philosophers of his day and was the world's most famous humorist of any day. During the latter years of his life he ranked not only as America's chief man of letters, but likewise as her best known and best loved citizen. He became a friend to presidents, artists, leading industrialists and European royalty. American author William Faulkner called Mark Twain "the father of American literature". Samuel Langhorne Clemens was born in Florida, Missouri, in November 30, 1835. He was the sixth child of John Marshal Clemens and Jane Lampton Clemens who gave him the name of Samuel - a family name added Langhorne, after an old Virginia friend of his father. The child was puny and did not make a very sturdy fight for life. Still he weathered along season after season, only three of his siblings survived childhood: his brothers Orion and Henry, and his sister Pamela. His sister Margaret died when Sam was four years old and his brother Benjamin died three years later. Another brother, Pleasant died at the age of six months.
Approximately fair years after his birth, in 1839, the Clemens family moved to the small frontier town of Hannibal, Missouri. Growing port cities that lie along the banks of the Mississippi, Missouri was a slave state in the Union. Sam's father owned one slave and his uncle's form that Sam spent many boyhood summers playing in the slave quarters, listening to tall tales and the slave spirituals that he would enjoy throughput his life.
Samuel Clemens had a favorite word whenever he described his boyhood home of Hannibal, Missouri -drowsing. He meant that it was a place halfway between sleeping and awake, a lazy outpost on the Mississippi River, where he and his friends lived in a world of straw hats, corn cop pipes, trout fishing, playing hooky, and watching steamboats play the river. Clemens would later call these his "Tom Sawyer days" a time when he himself pulled many of the pranks he later attributed to his young hero. He lived there from the age of four to fifteen, and he relieved those days for the rest of his life in books like Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, and life on the Mississippi. "When I was a boy, there was but one permanent ambition among my comrades in our village on the west bank of the Mississippi River. That was to be a steamboat man" from "Old Times on the Mississippi" 1875.
"I was always told that I was a sickly and precarious and tiresome and uncertain child and lived mainly on allopathic medicines during the first seven years of my life. I asked my mother about this in her old age - she was in her 88th year - and said: "I suppose that during all that time you were uneasy about me?" "Yes, the whole time". "Afraid I wouldn't live?"
After a reflective pause - ostensibly to think out the facts: "No afraid you would".
