would you mind telling me about the sentence of comparative of shy?

Do you mean that you would like an example of how it is used? If so, then:

Possible missing noun sense: "a trial" (?)

[edit]

This occurs in Chambers 1908: I'm not sure what sort of trial is meant. Presumably nothing judicial. Perhaps a difficulty in life? Equinox 21:01, 23 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
