I sometimes find that this word is hard to spell. Thank goodness for Microsoft Word. Possibilities of spellings include: ackward, aquard, and akward. -24.23.147.216 03:46, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
I personally can't see anyone using the words "awkwarder" and "awkwardest". This is an example of bad, lazy English; should these be removed? — This comment was unsigned.
- Personal knowledge is not determinitive of the content of our entries. When you write your book, you might wish not to use those words, but the authors of more than a hundred published books use "awkwarder". We don't say that usage is wrong. I'm sure you can find a book that will agree with you that it is wrong. DCDuring TALK 10:49, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
What about "awkwards"? AmericanLeMans (talk) 20:00, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
missing sense? edit
"awkward-sounding" — sense 2 seems closest but is lacking (awkward-sounding has no embarrassment) —umbreon126 00:56, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
Awkward to sth. edit
Meaning something like averse, or perhaps ill-disposed, I would say. Multiple Mooses (talk) 16:31, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
