== Comparatives and superlatives ==
To show that a word is the most superlative among the three or more options described one adds the intensive form -''qurqur'' to the end of the word. To show that a word is the biggest out of two options and bigger than another option in a list but not the biggest of all, one uses the lesser intensive form -''qur''. E.g., ''Basqur'' means bigger and ''basqurqur'' is biggest. If there's only two options, then ''basqur'', means the biggest. People can also use redoubling to mean the superlative. For example, ''basbas'' means biggest. It's rarely used in formal writing. ''Basqurqur'' is rarely used in every day conversation is usually appears in formal writing. Normally the way people speak, the comparative and superlative and intensive forms are combined since there's rarely any need for a distinction between the three forms. Most people do not actually use comparatives and superlatives instead they use periphrasis to achieve the same result for instance: "Noi is the greatest goddess" (''Noi muloheem mubasqurqur'') instead one would say "Noi is above all other goddesses" (''Noi muyubav meloheem mekumeen'').
