Mi hijo mayor...

Hola,

The first sentence above uses 'mayor' to mean eldest.  How would you say 'elder'?

How can you be sure which is meant between the two?

How do you for the superlatives and the opposites (the least) of the comparatives?

Muchas gracias.

Saludos,

Colin

Thank you very much, Inma.

I have seen 'el' being used in this way but I wanted to get a definitive answer, which you have provided.

Saludos,

Colin
