worser |
1 definition found From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]: Worser \Wors"er\, a. Worse. [R.] Thou dost deserve a worser end --Beau. & Fl From worser thoughts which make me do amiss. --Bunyan. A dreadful quiet felt, and worser far Than arms, a sullen interval of war. --Dryden. Note: This old and redundant form of the comparative occurs occasionally in the best authors, although commonly accounted a vulgarism. It has at least, the analogy of lesser to sanction its issue. See {Lesser}. ``The experience of man's worser nature, which intercourse with ill-chosen associates, by choice or circumstance, peculiarly teaches.'' --Hallam.
