Cultural Tip
In Spanish, the absolute superlative is built with 'el/la/los/las' + 'más' + adjective. When the noun is omitted, the article still appears (e.g., 'es el más rápido'). Brand names like 'Express Mail' are often kept in English, but they follow Spanish gender rules for agreement. Also, avoid mixing the comparative 'más rápido' (more fast) with the superlative; the article signals the superlative meaning.
