Degrees of Comparison
Like adjectives in other languages, most OE adjectives
distinguished between three degrees of comparison: positive,
comparative and superlative. The regular means used to form the
comparative and the superlative from the positive were the suffixes -
ra and -est/ost. Sometimes suffixation was accompanied by an
interchange of the root-vowel.
The adjective god had suppletive forms. Suppletion was a very old
way of building the degrees of comparison:
god – bettra – bet(e)st,
lytel – læssa – læst.
The pronoun
OE pronouns fell roughly under the same main classes as
modem pronouns: personal, demonstrative, interrogative and
indefinite. As for the other groups — relative, possessive and
reflexive — they were as yet not fully developed and were not
always distinctly separated from the four main classes. The
grammatical categories of the pronouns were either similar to
those of nouns (in "noun-pronouns") or corresponded to those
of adjectives (in "adjective pronouns"). Some features of
pronouns were peculiar to them alone.

Personal Pronouns
OE personal pronouns had three persons, three numbers in
the 1st and 2nd p. (two numbers—in the 3rd) and three
genders in the 3rd p. The pronouns of the 1st and 2nd p. had
suppletive forms like their parallels in other IE languages.
The pronouns of the 3rd p., having originated from
demonstrative pronouns.
