Flüssigeren

Flüssigeren is the comparative form of the German adjective flüssig, used to describe something that is more liquid or has higher liquidity than another thing. It is not a noun, but a declined adjective that follows standard German grammar rules for adjectives.

In practice, flüssigeren appears most often in plural noun phrases with a definite determiner or other determiner, for example: die flüssigeren Substanzen (the more liquid substances) or den flüssigeren Substanzen (dative plural: to the more liquid substances). If a possessive determiner is used, such as unsere, seine, or ihre, the same ending is used: unsere flüssigeren Mischungen, seine flüssigeren Lösungen.

Without a determiner, the form changes: in the plural, the uninflected form is flüssigere Substanzen (more liquid substances) rather than flüssigeren. In the singular, the standard comparative form is flüssiger (e.g., ein flüssigerer Vergleich is not common; German typically uses flüssiger). The forms of flüssig can thus depend on number, article, and case, as with other German adjectives.

Usage notes: Flüssigeren is mainly found in technical, scientific, or descriptive prose where explicit comparison of liquidity is required. It does not introduce a new noun; it remains an adjective modifying a noun such as Substanz, Lösung, or Gemisch. In everyday language, speakers often use Flüssiger in the singular when making a straightforward comparison, while flüssigeren appears most clearly in plural contexts with definite or determiner-bearing nouns.
