Comparison words, also known as comparative and superlative words, are words that indicate the degree of difference between two or more items. They are used to compare the characteristics, qualities, or quantities of different things.

Here are some common comparison words:

1. Comparative words describe the difference between two items:
- "Bigger" and "smaller" compare size.
- "Faster" and "slower" compare speed.
- "More" and "less" compare amount or quantity.
- "Better" and "worse" compare quality.

2. Superlative words describe the highest or most extreme degree of a quality among three or more items:
- "Biggest" and "smallest" describe the highest and lowest size.
- "Fastest" and "slowest" describe the highest and lowest speed.
- "Most" and "least" describe the highest and lowest amount or quantity.
- "Best" and "worst" describe the highest and lowest quality.

To identify comparison words, you can look for words that express differences in degree or make comparisons between items. It is also important to note that some comparison words take the form of regular adjectives or adverbs, with the addition of -er for comparison or -est for superlative, while others use "more" or "most."

If you are unsure whether a word is a comparison word, you can consult a dictionary or a grammar resource to clarify its usage and meaning.
