Hi,
can you tell me which one is correct :
New words and phrases or New words and new phrases ???
Correct is an adjective . What is the comparative and the superlative form of it ?
Thanks a lot :) |

Both are gramatically correct, but most people would say "new words and phrases".
more correct
the most correct
However, like "unique", "correct" doesn �t logically have comparative and superlative forms, since something is either correct or it isn �t. That doesn �t stop people from using the forms, though.

1 - new words and phrases
2 - It is correct or it is not...but if you need to use it is "more correct" and "the most correct" |

Surely �correct � is an absolute? It is either correct or incorrect. There is no comparative. |
