====Usage notes====
Degrees of comparison:<br>
* ''[[Wiktionary:About_Greek/Glossary#comparative|comparative]] [[periphrastic]]:'' {{m|el|πιο}} + {{glossary|positive}} forms (e.g. πιο '''γλυκός''' /pçó ɣlikós/, etc.)
* ''comparative [[monolectic]]:'' the expected form {{m|el|γλυκότερος}} is less common than {{m|el|γλυκύτερος}}, comparative of {{m|el|γλυκύς}}.
* ''{{glossary|relative superlative}}:'' {{l|el|ο|t=article "ο, η, το"}} +  {{m|el|πιο}} + {{glossary|positive}} forms (e.g. ο πιο '''γλυκός''' /o pçó ɣlikós/, etc.)
* ''{{glossary|absolute superlative}}:'' the expected {{m|el|γλυκότατος}} is rare, (see medieval {{m|gkm|γλυκότατος}}; the superlative of {{m|el|γλυκύς}}, {{m|el|γλυκύτατος}} is used instead.
Feminine forms: 
* {{m|el|γλυκιά|ts=ɣlicá}}; the dated {{m|el|γλυκεία|ts=ɣlicía}} < ancient {{m|grc|γλυκεῖα}} of {{m|el|γλυκύς}} sometimes found as {{m|el||γλυκειά}}.
* Also see the medieval feminines {{m|gkm|γλυκέα}} of {{m|gkm|γλυκύς}}, {{m|gkm|γλυκία}} of {{m|gkm|γλύκιος}}, {{m|gkm|γλυκή}} of {{m|gkm|γλυκός}}
