Chic _ Chicer than _  The chicest !!!
Hello italki folks :-D . I just need your help about the correct pronunciation of the comparative and superlative forms of the word ( chic ) . Dictionaries just confine themselves to giving the pronunciation of ( chic ) only  . Thanks so much in advance :-D

Answer

ʃiːkə(r)
ʃiːkəst

The same way 'er' and 'est' are usually pronounced in comparatives and superlatives.

Answer

I have never heard anyone say "chicher" or "chicest." Have you? Anyway, the words look strange, because of the French adjective "chic" with English endings stuck on to it.
