Hello!
I'd like to know, am I right in my supposition that this pattern is true?
Bad / evil / ill - worse - worst
Or it is more natural to use general forms like er/est and more/most with this words?
I hope you will help me.
Cheers.
 
I'm not quite sure what your question is. Here are the adjective, comparative and superlative forms of your three adjectives.

Bad - worse - worst
Evil - more evil - most evil
Ill - Iller - Illest
 
I meant that all three words Bad / evil / ill have the same comparative and superlative forms - worse and worst.
Thank you for your explanation.
 
No. They each have their own different meaning.

No, they do not. As I showed in post #2, they have their own comparatives and superlatives.
