Quieter.

Quieter.
-
More quiet
-
quieter

Adding "more" is redundant. I can think of no circumstance where a simple "quieter" would not suffice.
-
Quieter. I looked it up and that is what I found. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/ It says "One who, or that which, quiets" but I still think that that is right.
-
Saying "more quiet" is like saying "more good" It's grammatically incorrect.
-
From what I understand, For one syllable adjectives either -r, er, or -ier is added depending on ending of word(if end in e, then add r; if end in y, then drop y and add ier; if none of above, then add er). For two syllable adjectives, if end in y, then drop y and add ier. For all others, use "more".
-
This kind of thing does depend on the case, but like the good aber before me said, stick with more quiet, and you will be laughed at less.
-
Quieter.
-
The word "quiet" used as an adjective is an exception to the standard rule of most two-syllable adjectives using "-er" or "-est" at the end to form their comparitive and superlative forms respectively. In the case of the word "quiet," both "quieter" and "more quiet" are exceptable.
-
Both are correct, just don't say more quieter.
-
quieter is better.
-
I agree with the one who says that both are correct. According to me there are no rules but grammatical tips for a better communication. Just remeber that quiet is a two-sillable adjective and it can be used either with "er or more". You can do the same with the adjective "simple". Simpler or more simple. Bye.
-
Both are correct depending on the usage. I am being more quiet as you requested, but if you wish, I will try to be more quieter.
-
I think I'll just shut it.
-
Both are correct. You can say "quieter" and "more quiet"; you just cannot say "more quieter". You can check it here: http://www.ucalgary.ca/uofc/eduweb/gramm…
