pv magazine International: Stricter rules for energy retailers as UK smart meter deployment slows
Hey, I have surfed a bit and I know that 'stricter' is preferred but is it all right to use 'more strict'?
Hi I heard "more strict" the other day and it sounded a little odd. The rule goes that if you have a single syllable adjective, then add "er". As "strict" fits that description, I'd go with "stricter". That, of course, is not to say that in some parts of the US, Canada, or even the UK, "more strict" is being used and considered "natural".
Grammatically speaking, the word 'stricter' means 'more strict'! No one (outside a standard language exam perhaps) is going to call saying 'more strict' incorrect. Grammatically or otherwise. It is not a mistake, and it is not dialectal. It is an exception to the rule.
