[Some optional forms (e.g. friskt and raskt) are not commonly used. They are not irregular, but here they are added to the irregular list]
The superlative can also be expressed in the E-form. For example, the superlative of doven is dovenest (laziest), which becomes doveneste in the E-form (Min doveneste elev - My laziest student). Similarly, mest afslappet (most relaxed) becomes mest afslappede in the E-form. This does not happen with the comparative. Some superlative examples (mostly irregular forms) have been added in the E-form column.
Most comparisons are fairly easy, which is why not all are shown here. If you are uncertain about a word, have a look at the principles.
