Curseder

/ˈkɜrsɪdər/ adjective

Definition

A comparative form meaning more cursed; more heavily afflicted by curses or misfortune than something else.

Etymology

From 'cursed' (past participle of 'curse,' from Old English 'cursian') plus the comparative suffix '-er.' This forms a standard English comparative adjective, though 'more cursed' is more commonly used in modern speech.

Kelly Says

English grammar offers '-er' and 'more,' but speakers usually avoid saying 'curseder' because three syllables feels awkward—we'd rather say 'more cursed,' showing how language comfort trumps grammatical possibility.
