If the word has more than one syllable, "er" or "est" ending are to be replaced with the words "more" and "most"

And then again...it was a few years since I've been to school...

No, still allowed.

short adjectives: add "-er"

Short adjectives
1-syllable adjectives
old, fast
2-syllable adjectives ending in -y

long adjectives: use "more"

Long adjectives
2-syllable adjectives not ending in -y
modern, pleasant
all adjectives of 3 or more syllables


Clever is 2 syllables and doesn't end in "y"

AndyK 09 Nov 2007 16:50

Actually you're both right ...

Quote:

With some 2-syllable adjectives, we can use '-er' or 'more':
quiet > quieter/more quiet
clever > cleverer/more clever
narrow > narrower/more narrow
simple > simpler/more simple
But I knew that because I'm more clever than the pair of you :p

Let me check something, my dear sir...

Oh...you're a super mod and admin...

Yes, sir...you're the most cleverest and the most handsomest and the most fairest and the most...ummm...yeah...

mszee 09 Nov 2007 16:56

OK...I just found a hole in that grammar rule - is that an exception?

Lovely - loveliest.

Isn't this one 3 syllables?

AndyK 09 Nov 2007 18:12

If it ends in y then the y is replaced with an i before adding the er or est

What confused me is that it says that 3 syllables and up are long...regardless how they end...

Whoever invented English language was a sadist
