Yesterday, I heard my Professor, a real Aussie, say: "I hope you're all more clearer about that now."
That makes me wonder, isn't "clearer" alone enough? Do native speaks actually say "more" + one-or-two-syllable adjs in spoken language?
And, there is: "He'll be more and more lazy!". Again, that was said by an Australian. Would it be any more correct to say: "He'll be lazier and lazier."? Which way is preferable? Thanks a lot for any explanation.
