VIKAS said
IMO it should be either ‘dumbest’ or ‘most dumb’ and not “most dumbest” because ‘dumbest’ is the superlative of ‘dumb’ or else you add most to it (‘most dumb’) to form the superlative. Ideally it should be ‘dumbest’ because according to the rules you add -est to one syllable adjectives.

Trying to explain technology to someone who is not interested in it.
By the way, regarding the grammar of the title. There is a double comparative in that. Either say: “What is the most dumb thing…” or “What is the dumbest thing….” Never mix “most” or “least” with the “-est” form of the adjective. Similarly, either “the most tall” or “the tallest” never “the most tallest”.

Yeah,I understand now..Thansk for sharing Pradeep.. _nimmy

What’s there to imagine, I do dumb things all the time anyways.
P.S. Nimmy dear, guessing from some of your answers here, you seem to be bit tensed up? Take it easy dear, you dont need to explain anybody why you cant blog more. Blog when you feel like or if you dont feel like at all, it’s ok too. Cheers

You also shouldn’t end a sentence with of. It should read “What is the dumbest thing you can imagine?” Which I think is when people refuse to vote or participate in the political process.
Nimmy said
Thank you Goriwife
p.s: You ahve an interesting name

My two cents:
One, since most commenters seem to be from other places, my opinion as a native English speaker from the US might be worth something.
Goriwife #14 is right, but ‘think of’ means ‘imagine’. So we say “…thing I can imagine.” Or we say “…thing I can think of.” There’s no reason for that, it’s just custom–one of those frustrating two-word verbs English likes so much. Regarding “most ___est”, #11 is spot on.
Two, regarding the reason for the post, Nimmy you are:
thoughtful, insightful, open-minded, fair, interesting, good-hearted and wise. Dumb? No. Your blog has always been fascinating and educational, and I was really sad when it looked like you might not keep it up–and overjoyed when you came back. I really look forward to whatever thoughts you feel like posting, and if you don’t feel like it, pleas don’t feel like you must on our account.Remember,

I have always regretted it when I have said something to someone over something really dumb when all I could have done is simply ignore.
