improperlu defined problems with english language...

ive got a language problem:
when something has a more intense quality of something it ends with -er, like green/greener
when something has all the qualities of the other thing just that more intense, what do you call it?
is that something more-er? whatever-er? than the other thing?

i didnt meant to be implied that something was better or worser by having more of all the same qualitys (some could be better come worser) just that it has more of all and not neccesarily the one that has the most of those qualitys...

In the case you describe you would just use the word "more".
ie ..more green,dense and heavier than.
if it's intense....it's more intense , you can't say intenser.
You can never go wrong with saying "more green" or "more hot" as it will not be wrong even though you could say "greener" or "hotter"....both are correct.
Hope this helps.

-est works on alot of words though...it really depends.

green, greener, greenest. strong, stronger, strongest, etc.
