I don't mind you not using
quieter or
quietest, but I do mind you telling me, a native speaker of English, that these forms are incorrect. I don't mind there being exceptions to the rules. I meant shorter adjectives as in the sense shorter number of syllables. I believe that the forms like
more quiet (1.01 m ghits),
most quiet (250 k ghits),
securer (204 k ghits),
securest (164 k ghits), just show that the system is in a state of flux. (
Quieter (14.5 m ghits),
quietest (2.86 k ghits),
more secure (30.3 m ghits),
most secure (5.67 m ghits).)
More sure may be preferred by speakers because of
sure ending in an
r sound.
Fun may be problematic because both
fun and
funny are adjectives.
Also, I do like the comparison of adjectives in -
ly.
A goodlier sum of money I have never seen.
