English Language & Usage Asked by Devin Hudson on March 19, 2021
so I’ve heard the expression “it sounds more natural” in many English podcasts but as everyone knows “natural” is an uncountable adjective, therefore “much” should be preceded before the adjective.
I cannot really figure it out why is this happening in English?
More is an intensifier here. With shorter adjectives you would say or write:
brighter, taller, sweeter
and
funnier, shinier, lovelier.
but with longer adjectives/adverbs/ prefer:
more natural, less infrequently, more respected, better qualified.
