rightest

Superlatively not wrong

Rightest is the superlative form of right, meaning most correct or most accurate: Of all the answers given, hers was the rightest.

The word is grammatically valid but sounds awkward to most ears—"most right" is preferred in formal contexts.

Rightest occasionally appears in informal or playful usage: You're the rightest person I know.
