Superlative of Alone

Hi there


I wrote a sentence in a book and I wasn't sure if it was right or even if it exists, please what is the superlative of the word "alone"? I wrote : "Day by day he felt more alone", but I tried to find the answer online and I couldn't, there was one website that mentioned it as correct, other said that "alone" doesn't have superlative so I got confused.

I'd appreciate your help

thanks

Raquel

"Day by day he felt more alone". You are using the comparative form with 'more'. The superlative form of 'alone' is 'the most alone'.

"Day by day he felt the most alone".

Superlative form: the most alone
Comparative form: more alone

Predicate adjectives (adjectives used to describe the subject of a sentence) form the comparative with more and most:
afraid, mute, certain, alone, silent, etc.
