Cowier

/ˈkaʊiər/ adjective

Definition

The comparative form of 'cowy,' meaning more resembling, characteristic of, or related to cows.

Etymology

From 'cow' + '-ier' (comparative suffix). This adjective builds on 'cowy' by adding the standard English comparative ending used for one-syllable adjectives, similar to 'bigger' from 'big'.

Kelly Says

English comparative forms are wonderfully logical—we add '-er' to short adjectives, but this same pattern works on almost any adjective you can imagine, even ones about cows!
