 Luthic has two grammatical constructions for expressing comparison: comparative and superlative. The suffixes ''-izo'' (the “comparative”) and ''-issimo'' (the “superlative”) are of Indo-European origin and are cognate with the Latin suffixes ''-ior'' and ''-issimus'' and Ancient Greek ''-ῑ́ων'' “-īōn” and ''-ῐστος'' “-istos”. This system also contains a number of irregular forms.
