Hello Rover_KE,
I read that tutorial, but it was not very helpful.
They used the adjective "clever" as an example of adjectives which make their comparative and superlative forms by adding -er and -est. However, I saw in other grammar books that it can also take
more and
most to form its comparative and superlative.
I know the basic rules, but a number of disyllabic words are a bit complicated for me:/, and grammar books do not always help since they offer different rules(for instance,
obscure is in one grammar treated as an adjective which takes
more and
most and in another as an adjective which takes inflected forms). Because of that, I wanted native speakers' opinion.
And since you wanted my effort, these are the forms which I usually use:
friendlier or more friendly- I use both equally,
more lonely, more common, more quiet, shyer, simpler, crazier, narrower, more obscure, more polite, more clever.
For all these adjectives I have read somewhere that both possibilities are acceptable and I would like to know if native speakers agree with that.
