Definition
More grewsome or gruesome; more disturbing or horrifying than something else.
Etymology
Formed from 'grewsome' using the comparative suffix '-er,' which is the standard English way to compare two things (more common in modern English is 'more gruesome'). Regular adjectives form comparatives with '-er' while longer ones use 'more.'
Kelly Says
English has two competing systems for comparatives: short words use '-er' (darker, faster) while longer words use 'more' (more beautiful, more intelligent), which sometimes confuses English learners because the rule isn't always obvious.
