It's funner to say "funner" than it is to say "more fun." That's just a fact.

"Funner" and "funnest" are starting to be accepted by major dictionaries.

That's exactly what I thought. The dictionary is just giving up.

i know. I'm so disappointed in those dictionary editors. This kind of thing should be what they live for.

That's what we think, but it probably won't seem like poor English to future generations who grow up with it.

I'm just curious as to what part of adding the suffix -er to a one-syllable word is considered poor English?

When I hear someone say "funner" it makes them seem really dumb to me.

sounds like you're one of those uptight people who should be living in an underground closet, upside down in a straightjacket with absolutely no human interaction.

@1051053 (Anonymous): No I'm not uptight I just don't see any reason to dumb yourself down by saying funner when it's just as easy to say "more fun".

agh, I kinda get where you're coming from. (Here comes the big apology/forgiveness? scene) I go to a super preppy uptight private high school, and I'm one of the less uptight people, so to me it's just annoying when people try to act all "I be smarterer dan choo" by correcting the way others speak. Sorry for the bio btw.

It's cool, I'm not a grammar nazi or anything just some words like "funner" bug me.

I just need everyone here to know that the word "funner" is a word. If you take a word of one syllable- "fun"- the comparative form of that one syllable word is formed by adding "-er" to the ending. Same goes for the superlative form "funnest". People just think that idiomatically it does not sound right, and end up making fun of people who understand their language!
