adjective Worser adj. Worse. (R.) "Thou dost deserve a worser end." "From worser thoughts which make me do amiss." "A dreadful quiet felt, and, worser far Than arms, a sullen interval of war." Note: This old and redundant form of the comparative occurs occasionally in the best authors, although commonly accounted a vulgarism. It has, at least, the analogy of lesser to sanction its issue. See Lesser. "The experience of man's worser nature, which intercourse with ill-chosen associates, by choice or circumstance, peculiarly teaches."
