Excerpt from The Young Emancipator, a Freethought Magazine, Vol. 1: November, 1878
The other day I heard a woman say The trams run more smoother than the 'buses. Now, this should have been more smoothly. Tor, for another example, we should say: Glass is smoother than iron; such a word as more being quite unnecessary.
The very best is a phrase which is often used, and is generally accepted as substantially correct. But it is nevertheless an absurdity. The best is the best, viz., the highest degree of goodness, and the addition of the word very can add no force to that.
