The predicate tells what the subject does or is. It includes the verb and any other words that complete the meaning of the sentence. It is the latter part of the sentence that gives information about the subject or the action that is being performed.

Avoid using comparative or superlative forms. Common errors include using "more" or "most" with positive degree adjectives, or using "-er" or "-est" endings on adjectives that are already in the positive degree, can lead to errors.
Avoid using the positive degree when a comparative or superlative is more appropriate. For instance, when comparing two things, use the comparative degree. When comparing three or more things, use the superlative degree.
