Leglágyabb

Leglágyabb is a Hungarian superlative form built from the adjective lágy, meaning soft. It combines the prefix leg- with the comparative form lágyabb and the suffix -abb to express the utmost degree of softness or gentleness. In use, leglágyabb denotes the softest or most delicate among a defined set of items, textures, or qualities.

Etymology and formation: The base adjective is lágy (soft). The comparative form is lágyabb (kinder or softer), and the full superlative is leglágyabb, formed by adding the leg- prefix to indicate the highest degree within a group. This pattern is part of Hungarian doxology for forming superlatives with leg-.

Usage and nuance: The word is typically applied to tactile properties such as fabrics, textiles, cosmetics, or other materials described as exceptionally soft. It can also be used metaphorically for sounds, voices, or manners perceived as especially gentle or subtle. The sense is comparative within a specified set, rather than an absolute property.

Examples:

- Ez a párna a leglágyabb a gyűjteményben.

- Ez a krém a leglágyabb textúrát adja a bőrnek.

- A hangzás a koncerten a leglágyabb volt, a többi hangzáshoz képest.
