lijkst

Lijkst is not a standalone word in standard Dutch with a defined entry in major dictionaries. It is most often encountered as a string of letters at the end of longer Dutch words rather than as an independent lexeme.

In Dutch morphology, the suffix -lijk is productive and forms adjectives meaning roughly “like,” “related to,” or “characteristic of.” When these adjectives take a superlative ending, the result can end in -lijkst. For example, the word belangrijkstest would be unusual; a more typical construction is the adjective zichzelf with its own inflection. A clearer and common example is belangrijk, whose superlative form is belangrijkst (most important). In these cases, the sequence lijkst appears as part of the whole word but does not function as a separate word.

Because of that, lijkst should not be treated as a distinct lexical item with its own meaning. It can be mistaken for related forms or for the noun lijk (corpse) or the verb lijken (to seem); however, those are etymologically and semantically separate from any use of lijkst as a standalone term.

If capitalized as Lijkst, it would function as a proper noun and could denote a person, place, or fictional entity, but there are no widely documented entities by that name in standard reference works.

In summary, lijkst is best understood as a segment found in certain Dutch words ending in -lijk coupled with -st, not as an independent word with a separate sense.
