What is the comparative and superlative word of dirty?

Here's how to handle the comparative and superlative of "dirty":

* Dirty is an adjective that doesn't have a clear comparative or superlative form.

* It's not typical to say something is "more dirty" or "most dirty."

* Instead, we use other words to describe varying levels of dirtiness:

Comparative:

* Dirtier (less common)

* More soiled

* Filthier

* More grimy

Superlative:

* Dirtiest (less common)

* Most soiled

* Filthiest

* Most grimy

The choice depends on the context and desired level of formality.
