Superlatives are formed from the positive adjective with the suffix ''-na'' and precede the noun they modify, e.g. ''enjina az'' "biggest man", ''lashana ebaz'' "quietest river". The usual sentence structure follows the pattern [Topic] + ''ba'' (+ [Location] + ''gang'') + [Superlative] + [Noun] + ''da'', e.g. ''Eric ba (Burung gang) enjina az da'' "Eric is the tallest man (in Burung)''.
