Crassier

/ˈkræsiər/ adjective

Definition

More rude, vulgar, or lacking in sensitivity than something or someone else; more grossly inappropriate.

Etymology

Comparative form of 'crass' using the '-er' suffix, from Latin 'crassus.' This follows the standard English pattern for comparing adjectives, allowing us to measure degrees of rudeness.

Kelly Says

English lets us compare how crude things are—'that joke is crassier than the last one'—borrowing from a Roman word about thickness that became code for moral thickness!
