Note that to form the Superlative of adverbs, it is similar to the Superlative of adjectives, EXCEPT you only use the definite article le plus / le mo

Note that to form the Superlative of adverbs, it is similar to the Superlative of adjectives, EXCEPT you only use the definite article le plus / le moins (there is NO agreement with adverbs, as they have NO gender).  But one of the examples uses "au":Je le ferai jeudi au plus tard.
I'll do it on Thursday at the latest.

Hi Judy,

Au = à le, hence au plus tard = à le plus tard.

You see, "au" is just the definite article in disguise ;)
