Adjectives / adverbs?

Do I understand correctly that meilleur et plus mauvais/pire are adjectives and that mieux and plus mal are adverbs? (If so, a "Note for grammar nerds" might be worth adding.)

Aurélie I agree with Almut, I think this would be easier to understand if you were to explain which are adverbs and which are adjectives - this is level B1 - people should know the difference between adjectives and adverbs at B1. Thanks Paul.

normally we  can place the superlative either before or after the noun
but does it work with irreguler superlatives

C'est le garçon le meilleur de la classe? (is that true?)

le lion est le plus féroce animal? ( is that true?)
