How do I form regular superlative phrases and what is the difference between that and a comparative adjective?

A superlative is an adjective that takes a comparison to the highest or lowest degree and it compares 3 or more nouns. However, a comparative adjective is one that describes the difference between 2 nouns.To create a superlative that expresses "most" or a "greater" quality, we normally utilize the formula given below: definite article (el, la, los, las ) + más (most)  + adjective.For example: Mi madre es la mas responsable. (My mother is the most responsible)To create a superlative that expresses "least" or a "lesser" quality, we normally utilize the formula given below:definite article (el, la, los, las) + menos (least)  + adjective. For example: My prima es la menos inteligente de la familia. ( My cousin is the least intelligent of the family)
