adjectives - Increasingly + positive or increasingly + comparative?
For instance, would you rather say "It became increasingly hard" or "It became increasingly harder"?
From my understanding, both are possible, but their meaning is slightly different. The first simply means that it became "harder". The second literally refers to an increasing rate of getting harder.
Though in practice, I believe the second is still used to express the exact same as the first, while sounding somewhat awkward.
