Superlatives in Turkish: The "Most" (En)

In the previous lesson, we used Daha for comparing two things. Today, we use En for superlatives to indicate the "most" or the "-est" (the best, the fastest, the tallest) within a whole group or category.

💡 Grammar Structure:

$$Category/Range + En + Adjective$$

• En: Equivalent to "The most" or the "-est" suffix in English.

• It is always placed directly before the adjective.
