There is no comparative form of the
adjective nor properly speaking a
superlative

bambilang 'exceedingly', express a
surperlative or rather a very high quality of the thing

with anything else. Hence comparisons
on things are expressed in the following
imperfect and an indistinct manner
To say "this is bettr than that" is
thus expressed, Nginna marong. narrai -
ngannalla
; literally "this is good, not that"
"Nila marambang ngagguaingual" -
literally, This very good, that also.
To say: This very good, that also.
To say: This is the best of all, Nilla marongbangan
nirrai inguanna Nginnallal. This is
good indeed, these are not like it"
