Learn more about certain adjectives
Sunday, January 10, 2016
Just today, I heard this from a man,while trying to argue out a point, on TV:
"This is more strange...."
Sorry, that is a blunder to say and I'm sure you would have been a victim too.
I have also heard "more sane" too.
CAUTION: For these adjectives, say:
"strange/stranger/strangest"
"sane/saner/sanest"
e.g. This is strange but what I hear from Joe is stranger than this. The strangest thing is that I heard he slept with his sister (not "more strange/most strange").
:: It is saner to have roads constructed. The sanest thing is that government wants to stop constructing roads with asphalt (not "more sane/most sane").
I hope you get?
