What are the Comparative and superlative forms of word angry?

The word "angry" is an adjective, and it doesn't have comparative and superlative forms in the traditional sense. Here's why:

* "Angry" is already at the highest degree of intensity. You can't be "more angry" than angry.

* We use adverbs to modify intensity. Instead of saying "more angry" or "most angry," we would use adverbs like "more furiously," "more intensely," "furiously," or "extremely angry."

Here's an example:

* Instead of: "He was more angry than before."

* You would say: "He was more furious than before."

Remember: "Angry" is a strong emotion that doesn't require further intensification with comparative or superlative forms.
