Legszorosabb

Legszorosabb is a Hungarian adjective in its superlative form, meaning the tightest or the narrowest among a group. It is formed from the base adjective szoros (tight, narrow) with the comparative suffix -abb to yield szorosabb (tighter, narrower), and then prefixed by leg- to create legszorosabb, the superlative meaning “the most tight/narrow.” The word, like other leg- compounds, agrees with the noun it modifies in number and case (for example, a legszorosabb nadrág = the tightest/most form‑fitting pants).

Usage and nuance: Legszorosabb is used when making a direct comparison between several items or measurements related to fit, width, or constriction. It commonly appears in discussions of clothing, equipment, or spaces where tightness or narrowness is relevant. In sentences, it often resolves to a noun phrase such as egy ruha, egy nadrág, vagy egy csatorna szorításának legszorosabb példánya (the tightest example of constriction in a garment, pants, or channel).

Examples:

- Ez a nadrág a legszorosabb a kollekcióban. (This pair of pants is the tightest in the collection.)

- A cipőfűzőt a legszorosabbra kötötték, hogy stabil legyen a felszerelés. (The shoelaces were tied the tightest to secure the equipment.)

Related forms and notes: Leg- as a superlative prefix is used broadly in Hungarian with many adjectives, producing forms such as legnagyobb (biggest), legkisebb (smallest), legjobbra (best). Szoros can also have noun senses (szoros meaning a strait or a narrow pass), where context determines whether legszorosabb refers to width, distance, or constriction.
